News
on Supplemental Dental Coverage
We heard this piece
of news from the American Dental Association we'd like to share.
Federal employees will be offered supplemental dental coverage
in 2007 under the Federal Employee Dental and Vision Benefits
Enhancement Act of 2004. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management
named seven supplemental dental coverage insurance providers
as carriers of the supplemental dental coverage.
This news shouldn't
be a cause for envy, since federal employees will voluntarily
enroll themselves and will have to pay the costs of the supplemental
dental coverage (except for the administrative expenses). But
we're not so sure how you'd feel when we tell you typically won't
be able to get dental insurance individually or as a family unless
your employer provides it. But you already know that.
Luckily, there are
dental discount plans that offer the same supplemental dental
coverage as the supplemental dental coverage insurance providers
- without the tedious paper work and the long waiting periods.
And did we mention you can have it even if supplemental dental
coverage is not on your employer's list of employee benefits?
Larry used to swing
between a dental insurance plan and a discount dental plan, but
now he's discovering how much less stressful a discount dental
plan is. He can get discounts even on aesthetic procedures like
cosmetic dentistry and orthodontics, so unlike dental insurance
plans... Now he's sticking it with us here at Eagle
Dental Insurance with our supplemental
dental coverage. He knows for sure that he's getting the best
supplemental dental coverage with us, not only for himself but
also for his family.
For as little as $11.95
a month, his entire family can get 20% to 60% discounts on dental
and vision services and products. But the best thing about our
supplemental dental coverage plan is that there is no discount
on quality – our network consists of 30,000 professional
dentists nationwide and 40,000 vision services providers, including
LensCrafters, Pearle Vision, Target Optical, and Sears Optical.
There is the type supplemental
dental coverage plan that many families need.
