Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) dental and vision plans typically involve lower costs for staying within a restricted network of providers and require referrals. Vision coverage can be included with dental plans, or purchased as a bundled dental, vision, and hearing (DVH) plan from many of our carriers and providers.
Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs) plans offer greater provider flexibility and out-of-network coverage at a potentially higher cost than if you stay in-network. Vision coverage can be included with dental plans, or purchased as a bundled dental, vision, and hearing (DVH) plan from many of our carriers and providers.
While not insurance plans, these plans offer reduced rates on dental and vision services through a network of participating providers. Unlike insurance, these plans do not pay medical claims. Consumers are responsible for paying the full discounted price for services at the time of care. These plans are typically more affordable than insurance and can save you money on dental and vision care, but should not be considered a substitute a major dental or vision insurance plan.
