Network Savings
The option is tied to a network of participating dentists who have signed contracts and agreed to accept certain fees for dental services. A member must visit a dentist in the network in order to enjoy the contracted savings. For example, if the normal cost for a dental procedure is $300 and a contracted network dentist has agreed to perform that same procedure for $250, the member realizes the $50 savings immediately upon treatment. We can’t guarantee that all dental services will be discounted, but more often than not, they will be.

Annual Allowance
In addition to network savings offered on over 250 dental services, this option has an added bonus – a $100 Annual Allowance per member. A member may apply their $100 Annual Allowance to any of the service codes available for discount under this option (see Schedule A). A network dentist should always file a claim on behalf of their patient. That enables us to process and apply your $100 Annual Allowance to your claim, and provide an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) to you. Therefore, services, charges and savings may be verified for accuracy. It’s about another choice. It’s about an alternative way to access dental care that provides consumers with choice, savings and convenience. It’s an option that is more consumer driven and for those people who take on more personal responsibility for their oral health care, demand savings and want to pay as you go.
