Are you the owner of a dental insurance plan from United Healthcare? If so, you can rightly count your policy as an asset. Not only can it allow you to enjoy low-cost preventive care, but it can also serve as a financial aid when your teeth or gums need a bit of restorative treatment. But how can you get the most out of your benefits? As an in-network United Healthcare dentist, Bridlewood Dental in Flower Mound, TX, is here to help! Continue reading below to learn some basics about how your coverage might work and how we can help you use it to the fullest extent.
Every dental insurance plan comes with a unique set of details and stipulations, so you will need to look at your specific policy to find out how it works. In the meantime, here is an overview of the coverage provided by many standard PPO plans:
Your plan may also come with a deductible and a waiting period before you can use your benefits for certain services. Additionally, you may have an annual maximum, which places a limit on how much United Healthcare will pay for approved services within a calendar year. Often, the maximum is $1,000 or more.
Because we are in-network with United Healthcare, we are in an ideal position to help you get the most value out of your annual maximum. We have a contract with your insurance company that controls prices, and we can sometimes schedule major services across multiple appointments. When those appointments occur between calendar years, you may be able to use two annual maximums instead of only one.
We understand that dental insurance can be confusing at times. That is why our knowledgeable and friendly team is always ready and eager to help patients use their benefits. With your insurance information close at hand, call our practice. We can verify your coverage and explain how it might apply in various situations. When you receive treatment, we will make sure all claims get filed in a timely manner.
