DENTAL INSURANCE



        Option 1 - DMO

        As a Cigna DMO member, you are required to select a general dentist to provide your dental care. You will contact your
        general dentist for all of your dental needs, such as routine check-ups and emergency situations. If specialty care is needed,
        your general dentist will provide the necessary referral.

        Option 2 - Base PPO
        The Cigna Base PPO plan is a Preferred Provider dental plan. The benefits cover a wide range of dental services. You may
        visit a PPO dentist who is a member of the “Cigna DPPO Advantage” network and benefit from the negotiated rate or visit a
        non-network dentist. When you utilize a PPO dentist, your out-of-pocket expenses will be less. You may also obtain services
        using a non-network dentist; however, you will be responsible for the difference between the covered amount and the actual
        charges and you may be responsible for filing claims. When using the PPO plan, all deductibles, plan maximums, and service
        specific maximums (dollar and occurrence) cross accumulate between the network and non-network tiers of the plan.

        Option 3 - Premier PPO
        The Cigna Premier PPO plan works just like the Cigna Base PPO plan, but the Premier plan has the additional Cigna DPPO
        total network of providers. When you visit a “Cigna DPPO Advantage” or a “Cigna DPPO” dentist you will benefit from the
        negotiated rate.
