Carrier
SelectHealth
The company that provides and manages your insurance coverage. You pay your insurance premiums, which are regular payments to maintain your coverage, directly to the carrier.
Plan Year
2024
A dental plan year typically spans one year from when you enrolled in the plan. At the start of each new year, plans reset, and any deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums, and benefits calculations begin anew.
Individual and Family Deductible
Dental insurance plans offer individual and family deductibles to accommodate varying needs. Individual deductibles require a specific out-of-pocket payment before insurance coverage applies to dental procedures, while family deductibles consolidate these costs for the entire family's dental expenses.
These plans typically categorize dental work into minor and major procedures. Minor work covers routine treatments like fillings and simple extractions, with insurance sharing the cost. In contrast, major work, which includes procedures such as root canals or crowns, often requires a larger patient contribution. It's important to note that the deductible normally doesn't apply to preventative care, such as check-ups and cleanings, which are often covered at no cost, emphasizing their role in maintaining oral health without additional financial burden.
Individual Deductible
$50
A deductible is the amount you pay out of your own pocket before your insurance coverage starts. It's a way to share costs between you and the insurance company.
Family Deductible
$150
Family deductible is the amount the entire family, or everyone enrolled on the plan, must meet before insurance pays a portion of your covered services.

***Out of Network Limitations and Balance Billing
Some dental plans offer out of network coverage. This is a great benefit because you can visit any dentist in the nation. Which means that if you are traveling, or have a dental emergency, you can visit a dentist for the service you need right away and have a portion of your bill covered by your dental insurance. Please note that if you see an out of network provider, that dentist is allowed to "balance bill" you. This means that your dental insurance company pays your dentist what is reasonable and customary for the services you received. In most situations that dentist accepts that payment and you are only responsible for your portion of the bill. Occasionally, that dentist will decide that the reasonable and customary amount they received from the dental insurance is not enough. That dentist will bill you for the additional charge or 'balance bill' you. You are responsible to pay this amount or contact the dentist to work out a payment plan.
