What is a
“discount" or "reduced fee" dental plan?
Discount or reduced fee dental plans are designed
for individuals, couples, and families looking to save money
when visiting the dentist. All general dentists participating in
discount dental plans have agreed to accept a lower fee, than
they would normally charge, as payment in full for each service
performed. Each discount dental plan comes with a membership
card and a complete list of all dental procedures covered and
what the discounted price will be. Discount dental plans are
also know as “referral plans” due to the fact they generate new
patient referrals to dental offices.
Once enrolled in any discount
plan listed on DentalPlans, you may visit a participating
provider of that plan and receive dental treatments at a
discounted fee. When visiting a general dentist, these
discounted fees range from 10% to 60% lower than what a dentist
normal charges. You simply show your membership card when
visiting any participating plan dentist to receive your dental
services at discounted rates. Unlike insured dental benefits,
there are no claim forms, pre-existing condition checks, or
paperwork hassles. |
