Every year, US insurance holders pay out of pocket for dental work in Mexico — and most of them are entitled to partial reimbursement from their PPO. They just don't know it, or the process is too painful to bother.
of US dental work performed in Mexico goes unclaimed against US PPO insurance plans.
We strip the process down to what actually matters: a clean, code-correct claim filed with your insurer. No commissions, no skimming — just one fee, paid once.
Snap a photo of your Mexican dental bill — Spanish is fine. Tell us your insurer and your member ID. That's it.
A specialist translates, itemizes, maps each procedure to the right CDT code, and files the claim with your insurer on your behalf.
The check goes directly to you — we never touch your money. If the claim is denied, you pay nothing beyond the submission fee.

In 2023 I had three crowns done in Tijuana. The work was excellent — and 70% cheaper than my Austin dentist. My PPO covered out-of-network procedures, so I figured the reimbursement was a formality.
It wasn't. Six months, four resubmissions, and one wrong CDT code later, I'd lost $1,400 in eligible reimbursement and a lot of sleep. Talking to friends who'd done the same trip, I learned almost everyone gives up.
Credimed exists because the process shouldn't be that hard. We don't take a cut of your refund. We don't lock you into anything. We just file the claim correctly the first time — or you don't pay.
Most claims clear $600–$1,500. The fee is $49. Takes about three minutes to start.
