Sample Copayments for the Select Prepaid Individual Dental PlanThe following is a sample of some frequently used dental procedures. When you enroll for the DentiCare plan, you willpay discounted fees called copayments. These discounts areonly available from providers who participate in our network.
After you enroll, a complete list of copayments will be mailed toyour home along with your Individual Prepaid Dental PlanAgreement. The sample below demonstrates potential savingswith the Select plan and may not reflect your actual results.
The Plan Dentist you select may not perform all procedures list-ed. The copayments shown apply to those Plan Dentists whoperform those services. Therefore, you are encouraged to discussavailability of the scheduled services with your Plan Dentist.Charges for procedures not listed on the Copayment Schedulethat are performed by your Plan Dentist are not covered underyour Plan with DentiCare.
Should you require dental services that your Plan Dentist isunable to provide, you may obtain those services from a PlanSpecialist at a discounted rate. No referral is needed from yourPlan Dentist in order for you to obtain services from PlanSpecialist. There is no applicable copayment schedule for PlanSpecialist services. Instead, the following discounts will apply.For treatment provided by an Endodontist you will receive 15%off his/her list charges. For treatment provided by an OralSurgeon, Orthodontist, Periodontist or Pedodontist you willreceive 25% off his/her list charges. You will be responsible forpaying the entire discounted charge at the time the service isreceived, or in accordance with the Plan Specialists’ billing proce-dures.
For a complete list of copayments contact:888.882.8233
