Tips For Using Your Dental Benefits
Use contracted network providers when possible.
If you choose to see a den st outside of the network, you’ll be reimbursed based on Usual and Customary (UCR) charges at
the 80th percen le. You would be responsible for any amounts over the UCR as well as any coinsurance.
Ask for a predetermination of benefits.
We strongly recommend you ask your den st for a predetermina on if total charges are expected to exceed $300.
Predetermina on enables you and your den st to know in advance what the payment will be for any service that may be in
ques on.
Have dental checkups regularly.
Rou ne dental visits not only preserve your smile, but they can provide an opportunity for the early detec on of serious
diseases such as diabetes.
