Indemnity Dental Plan
This plan allows you to seek care from any licensed dental provider. You need to meet an annual deductible before the plan pays benefits for many non-preventive services. The deductible is waived for preventive and diagnostic procedures. The amount of the deductible is based on your benefit level (Platinum Plus, Silver, Gold, or Platinum) and your plan type (Plan A or Plan B). Dental benefits are limited to a maximum amount for each calendar year for each person (age 19 and older). The amount of the benefit maximum is based on your benefit level (Platinum Plus, Silver, Gold, or Platinum) and your plan type (Plan A or Plan B). There is no annual benefit maximum for pediatric dental care (up to age 19).
