Can my dentist's wife text me a bill?
The answer to this question is generally no, a dentist's wife cannot text you a bill. While it is possible for a dentist's wife to work in the dental office and have access to patient information, she is not typically authorized to send out bills. This is because billing is usually handled by the office manager or another designated staff member. Additionally, sending out bills via text message is not a secure way to communicate patient information.
If you have received a text message from someone claiming to be your dentist's wife and asking you to pay a bill, it is best to contact your dentist's office directly to verify the request. You should never send payment to anyone who you are not sure is authorized to receive it.
