In California, a dental group generally has a deadline of 12 months to send medical bills to patients, meaning they must send the bill within one year of the date of service; however, specific deadlines may vary depending on the type of service and the insurance provider involved.

 

Key points about medical billing deadlines in California:

• General timeframe:

  Most medical providers in California have a 12-month window to submit a bill for services rendered. 

   
• Insurance contract considerations:

  The exact deadline may be specified within a dental group's contract with the patient's insurance provider. 

   
• Statute of limitations:

  Even after the billing deadline, a dental group may still attempt to collect payment within the statute of limitations for medical debt in California
