[EMPLOYEE BENEFITS]
DENTAL INSURANCE
METLIFE | DHMO
With the Dental Health Maintenance Organization (DHMO) plan through MetLife, you are required to select a general dentist who is
a member of the network 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.
METLIFE | PPO
With the MetLife Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) dental plan, you may visit a PPO dentist 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.
