Dental and Vision Insurance Plans

Individual and Family Dental and Vision Insurance Plans

By Ed Crowe | Dental, Dental insurance | 0 comment | 19 January, 2017 | 0

Individual Dental and Vision Insurance Plans

Vision and dental needs are not typically covered by medical insurance plans.  Such expenses can total to large amounts during the year.  Dental and Vision Insurance plans help to defray the cost of routine care.  We offer individual and family dental and vision plans at competitive rates.  Both plans have very competitive  benefits and national networks.

Dental Plans

Dental insurance plans have access to two different dental benefit designs.  Both plan choices use the Ameritus dental network.  There is no waiting period for either of the plan types for preventative and basic services.  Please note: Preventative and basic services vary by plan.  Click here to view a list of services by plan.  There is a waiting period for major services.  The Choice Dental plan offers a $1,500 annual per person max benefit.  The Premier Dental plan offers a $3,000 per person max benefit.  Plans both have a $25 per visit co-pay for services.  Both plans are available for all ages.  Rates are very competitive.  Open enrollment rules do not apply.  New plans can begin the first of any month.

Hassle free, unassisted online enrollment is available.

Stand Alone Dental Plans Connecticut

There are a number of stand alone dental plans Connecticut.  Stand alone dental simply means that either an individual or family can purchase the plan on its own.  There is no need to purchase any other type of insurance plan with it.  The plan is also not connected to any type of insurance plan that is offered from an employer.   In fact, when you purchase a stand alone plan, there is almost always a waiting period on both the basic and major services.   These waiting periods usually range from 6  up to 12 months.  It all depends on the plan you choose.

Cigna dental

Cigna dental currently has a stand alone dental plan with the best rates available for the benefits you receive.  They have three plan offerings. There is one plan that covers preventative only. There are two traditional dental plans with a $1,000 and $1,500 max annual benefit per person on the basic and major services.   All three plan designs are PPO’s.   This allows you to see any dentist even if they are not participating in the Cigna dental network.

In addition to having the lowest rates currently available in CT and one of the better networks of dentists, they will also waive the waiting period on basic and major services if the applicant has had previous dental coverage without a lapse.

Spirit Dental Plans

By Ed Crowe | Brokers, Dental | 0 comment | 13 February, 2013 | 0

Spirit Dental offers PPO and Indemnity based dental programs.   The plans have benefit structures which are similar to that of a group plan but are offered on an individual basis.  The two most popular plans are the PPO plan and the Indemnity plan.

The Spirit Indemnity plans are ideal for dentists that do not participate with dental plans. The plan uses a 90% fee schedule based off the zip code of the dentist.  This means that the fee schedule is 90% of what a dentist charges in that area.  Preventative, Basic and Major Services are covered from Day 1. Spirit Individual Dental Indemnity Details

 

If the dentists participates with the Careington or Premier dental network, the PPO plan would be the more cost effective choice.   The PPO plan has a lower premium and also includes Ortho coverage.   Spirit Individual Dental Careington Details
