What is dental insurance with complete coverage?

Full-coverage does not have a single meaning. Full-coverage dental insurance, as some people refer to it, refers to the fact that it includes fundamental procedures like X-rays and teeth cleaning. Some people use the term “full coverage” to describe dental insurance that also includes coverage for major operations like root canals or dental implants. Fortunately, eHealth can provide you plan choices that incorporate all dental services. Find a dental insurance plan that offers the coverage you need by requesting a quotation.

What is covered by dental insurance?

Various dental insurance policies cover various services. Preventative care and routine procedures are often covered by a basic dental plan, either with or without a co-pay, including:

  • Teeth cleanings
  • Cavity fillings (using silver/amalgam)
  • X-rays

Other plans might offer more comprehensive coverage, contributing to the cost of important dental operations like:

  • Root canals
  • Extractions
  • Crowns
  • Bridges
  • Braces
  • Dental implants

 

Procedures for dental insurance

Your dental insurance plan often includes a deductible, co-pays, co-insurance, and a maximum yearly benefit, just like most other types of health insurance. Here is a brief explanation of how these attributes relate to your dental care.

 

  • Deductible: This is the sum that must be paid out-of-pocket prior to the start of your insurance coverage.
  • Co-pay: Your dental insurance provider will charge you a predetermined monetary amount as co-pay for specific services and procedures. Your co-pay can go toward your deductible depending on the insurance or policy.
  • Co-insurance: This establishes the proportion of dental care that you’ll be responsible for once your deductible has been met. Therefore, if your co-insurance is 30%, you will be responsible for paying 30% of your dental expenses while your insurance would cover the remaining 70%.
  • Maximum annual benefit: This represents the most that your insurance will cover each person covered by your policy for the whole policy year. Depending on the specific policy and kind of plan you choose, your deductible, co-pay, co-insurance, and maximum annual benefit may change. United Precious Insurance Health by eHealth offers four different plan categories, each with a different level of choice and out-of-pocket expense.
  • DPPO: Most dentists accept this insurance, but in-network dentists charge less. You must pay a co-pay, deductible, and annual benefit cap for treatments.
  • DHMO: Out-of-network dentists are not covered; you must select one in-network facility or dentist. There is no deductible or maximum annual benefit; just a co-pay is required.
  • Fee-for-service: You can go to practically any dentist, but each visit will cost you money in addition to the co-pay.
  • Discount programmes: You can choose any dentist you choose. You pay a reduced rate at each visit and are responsible for the remaining costs of your care.

 

Before applying, make sure you’re comfortable with any network restrictions and out-of-pocket expenses related to your dental insurance plan.
