Dental, Vision and Hearing Plus insurance covers expenses such as routine exams, fillings, eyeglasses and hearing aids, so you don't have to. The "Plus" plan covers a wide range of services including orthodontics and implants.
This insurance supplements and complements other health insurance plans. It can help reduce or even eliminate your out-of-pocket costs for preventive care for your teeth, eyes and ears.
This type of insurance is sometimes overlooked until what was might have been routine maintenance becomes an urgent issue. Preventive care can lead to early detection of other diseases and health problems such as cancer and diabetes.
With our dental, vision and hearing plus insurance plan, you have the freedom to choose any provider and still enjoy your benefits. By selecting an in-network provider, you will enjoy the greatest savings.
Selecting an in-network provider for your dental, vision and hearing care has many advantages. The providers who participate in our network have agreed to offer services at a negotiated rate, which means you'll pay a discounted rate at the time of service. The examples below illustrate the savings of an in-network dentist for dental treatment.
