Ensuring Transparency and Trust: Our Comprehensive Guidelines

Supplies

  • Private Label merchandise and small equipment (Benco Brands) return policy
    For Private Label merchandise, Benco will provide credit (or replacement Benco Brands product) for any returned product, provided that it is returned to Benco within 120 days of invoice for consumables and small equipment. Please notice that small equipment must be unopened in order to be returned.
  • Private Label large equipment (Benco Brands) return policy
    Private Label large equipment must be returned (in working order) within 30 days of invoice and must be returned in the original package and include all original parts.
  • Non Private label (Brand Manufacturers) return policy
    Return policy for non-private (Brand Manufacturers) label products is subject to change based on a manufacturer’s return policy

  • Samples in Packages
    Packages may include samples and information regarding products from Benco and our valued partners. Free samples/products are typically noted on the invoice and/or include a “sell sheet” indicating the product is a sample and an overview of the product. Customers are not charged, and returns are not needed. Customer may keep/trial the product or discard if not applicable to your practice.
  • Product Availability
    Product availability is based upon manufacturer ability to produce.  If a direct replacement is made available for a discontinued item by the manufacturer, a customer’s order will be updated accordingly.  If a manufacturer does not have a direct replacement, Benco may substitute a close replacement from the same or different manufacturer.  If a direct replacement or a close substitute is not available, your order may be cancelled due to an excessive backorder time. Customers are typically advised via email if an order must be cancelled due to lack of availability of a product by the manufacturer.

    To qualify for CHC Free Goods, you must purchase the specified quantity on a single invoice. Certain restrictions apply. To participate in Free Goods: your practice must not bill any federal health care programs (i.e., Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare) for dental or pharmaceutical services; neither your practice nor your patients are reimbursed by such programs for such services. Participation is not permitted for customers who participate in any other pricing programs, including government, group practices, special markets, community health centers, schools, institutions, and discount customers.  Customers are responsible to determine if they are able to participate in these deals. Receipt of Free Goods, after rebate, cannot be combined with other offers.
