Bristol Health offers Dental insurance through Cigna.
Maintaining your oral health goes beyond achieving a bright smile as dental health has been widely linked to your overall health by dental and medical experts. Bristol Health offers two dental plans offered through Cigna.
Cigna Dental PPO Plan
Bristol Health offers PPO dental insurance through Cigna. The Cigna PPO dental program provides eligible employees easy access to a national network of dental providers consisting of general and specialty dentists who meet well-established credentialing standards. In network benefits are paid on contracted amounts. For a listing of dental providers that are contracted with Cigna, please visit the Cigna dental directory at cigna.com/hcpdirectory. You also have the option of going out of the network and utilizing any licensed provider. Benefits for not participating dental providers are based on reasonable and customary charges and you may be balanced billed if the provider utilized bills above this level.
Cigna Dental DHMO Plan
The DHMO is a plan that provides a full range of dental services. There are no deductibles and you are only responsible for the co-payment associated with each covered procedure when you visit a participating (in-network) dentist. Under this plan, you must select a primary care dentist in the Cigna network. Although there is a smaller number of dentists to choose from when compared to the DPPO, the costs are generally much lower. To determine your cost for a procedure, refer to the Cigna DHMO Schedule here.
