Blue Cross also offers
affordable dental
plans because we know
that regular dental
care is important
to your health.
Three of the four
choices are Blue Cross
Dental SelectHMOSM
plans. These plans
require you to use
participating dentists
and vary primarily
in the amount they
pay for restorative
services. In all
three plans, you pay
only $5 per office
visit for exams, cleanings
and x-rays. There
are no annual deductibles,
no annual maximums
and no waiting periods
for most services.
The PPO Dental Plan
(from BC Life &
Health Insurance Company)
allows you to see
any dentist you choose.
However, using a Blue
Cross PPO participating
dentist saves you
money because
there’s no charge
for preventive and
diagnostic services
and you’re assured
that the dentist will
charge no more than
the Blue Cross-negotiated
fees. Note that the
PPO plan does not
cover orthodontia.
Who’s
Eligible for Blue
Cross Dental Plans
You and your dependents
must be California residents.
If you enroll in one
of the Blue Cross Dental
SelectHMO plans, you
and your dependents
must select the same
participating dental
office. Dental providers
and locations are different
for the Dental PPO and
Dental SelectHMO.
Eligible dependents
include:
- Your lawful spouse
- Any unmarried
child under age
19 of you or your
enrolled spouse
- Any unmarried
child, age 19 to
23, of you or your
enrolled spouse,
who qualifies as
a dependent
for federal income
tax purposes
- A child of you
or your enrolled
spouse, who continues
to be both incapable
of self- support,
due to continuing
mental retardation
or physical handicap,
and who is at least
one-half dependent
on you or your spouse
for support.
