## Direct answer
A dental treatment estimate verification form should connect the planned procedure to active eligibility, remaining maximum, deductible, category coverage, frequency or replacement limits, documentation or predetermination requirements, COB details, evidence source, and non-guarantee caveat before the patient hears an estimated portion.

## Capture before estimating
Planned procedure, date of service, eligibility source, benefits remaining, deductible, category coverage, procedure limitations, documentation or predetermination requirements, COB notes, and patient caveat.

## Checklist
- Tie the estimate to a specific planned procedure and date of service.
- Verify maximum remaining, deductible remaining, and category coverage before calculating patient portion.
- Check procedure-specific limits and documentation requirements that can override broad category percentages.
- Preserve the source evidence and caveat that the estimate is not guaranteed until claim processing.
