Your Plan Includes Dental Rewards
This dental plan includes a valuable feature that allows plan members to carryover part of their unused annual maximum. Please select your appropriate dental plan highlight sheet for more information about dental rewards and how to qualify. If a plan member doesn’t submit a dental claim during a benefit year, all accumulated rewards will be lost; but he or she can begin earning rewards again the very next year.
LASIK Advantage Benefit
The LASIK benefits increase each year you are on the plan. This is a lifetime benefit and the payment is available only once per person. You must be 18 years of age or older and you can seek services at any facility. A 12 month late entrant period may apply.
