BENEFITS
DENTAL INSURANCE
Anthem | DHMO Dental Plan
With the Dental Health Maintenance Organization (DHMO) plan through Anthem, 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. For covered procedures,
you'll pay the pre‐set copay or coinsurance fee described in your DHMO plan booklet. Please keep a copy of your booklet to refer
to when utilizing your dental care. This will show the applicable copays that apply to all of the dental services that are covered
under this plan.
Anthem | PPO Dental Plan
With the Anthem Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) dental plan, you may visit a Choice dentist, a PPO dentist, or a non-
network dentist. When you utilize a Choice or PPO dentist, your out-of-pocket expenses will be less, however, you will usually pay
the lowest amount for services when you visit a Choice dentist. If you obtain services using a non-network dentist, you will incur
much higher out-of-pocket expenses and you may be responsible for filing claims.
