Healthcare Providers
These plans come with nationwide network of dental doctors and dental providers who have contracted with insurance company and offer you discounted medical costs related to their Usual, Reasonable and Customary (URC) rates of service. This directly affects your out-of-pocket expenses. It is significant to use providers in the network to get discounted services. The providers in the PPO network verify and obtain approval from the insurance company and file claims with insurance company after approved shared coinsurance from the insured customers. The insurance company for in-network providers controls the costs of services. However, you can go to out-of-network providers who may accept to give you discounts. Typically, the discounts of contracted rates are about 30% to 50% of URC rates.
It is always prudent to check and verify that the provider will accept to give you in-network rates of service. It may need shopping for dentist for the same set of services since the term URC is often vaguely applied. Check out this network to reach dentists who have contracts with the insurance company:
