What is a "Reduced Fee" or "Discount" Dental Plan?
Discount Dental plans are designed for individuals and families looking to save money on Dental care services. All general providers participating in a discount Dental plan have agreed to accept a reduced fee as payment in full for each service performed.
Once enrolled in any discount plan, you may visit any participating
provider and receive treatment at a reduced fee. Simply show your membership
card when visiting any participating plan provider to receive health care
services at discounted rates. No claim forms. No background checks. No
hassles.
How can your plan offer broad coverage at such low rates?
First, we keep administrative costs to a minimum. Second,
there are no claim forms to fill-out and there are no collections. Third
and more importantly, health-care professionals have begun to realize
the buying power of large groups (members). Forth, providers recieve their
payments immediatly.
Are the reduced fee Dental plans offered by Dental-plans.org considered insurance?
NO! REDUCED FEE PLANS ARE NOT INSURANCE. Discount dental plans are
an innovative alternative to dental insurance, designed for the needs
of individuals and families.
How are reduced fee or discount plans different from traditional insurance?
A reduced fee plan is different in several ways from traditional
insurance. Reduced fee plans remove much of the hassle and waiting that
goes into enrolling in traditional insurance. Unlike traditional insurance,
we do not check for preexisting conditions. There are no complicated forms
to fill out and send back and forth to any insurance company. There are
no deductibles to worry about and enrollment is available to anyone at
any age, regardless of your current health. Most importantly, there is
no annual maximum benefit. You can use the plan as much and as often as
needed. The member is responsible (at the prenegotiated rate) for payment
to the provider.
How are reduced fee plans similar to traditional insurance?
The network of participating doctors, dentists, optometrists, and
pharmacists that participate in the plans Dental-plans.org offers are
often the same providers you would find in any of the most popular insurance
plans today.
Can I use it along with my current insurance plan?
In some cases Yes, but it is best to check with the participating
provider office directly to maximize and coordinate all your benefits.
What do I pay?
Your TOTAL out of pocket expenses include your Dental plan cost and annual membership fee, plus the discounted fees you will be charged for medical services. That's it!
When do I become an active member? Is there a waiting period?
Your membership is activated on the day you select after your
payment is received and processed. Unlike health insurance, there is no
30-day or 90-day waiting period, or background checks.
Do I get a Membership Card?
Yes. All members receive a Membership Kit package with membership card.
When can I expect to receive my Membership Kit package?
Fulfillment packages should be received within two weeks of
your affective date.
Is there a limit to the number of members covered under the family plan?
There is no limit, as long as everyone enrolled in the family plan lives at the same mailing address.

What is a participating provider?
A participating provider is a medical service provider who has agreed to participate and provide services to plan members at a lower, preferred schedule of fees. The Dental-plans.org net-work is comprised of established private practitioners.
Am I stuck using a specific dentist or participating provider with this plan?
