Butler Health Plan

Do we have dental cards for employees?
- Yes. Most dentists have a standard claim form that they may mail to the Allied address. You may also pick up a dental claim form from your employer, Treasurer, Personnel Department or download from the "Forms" section of this website. Dentists may submit claim electronically.
Do we have a dental network?
- No. You may select your own provider. There is no dental network at this time.
When should I schedule my preventive cleanings?
- You are covered for two preventive cleaning services per calendar year. The plan will pay for two appointments between January 1 and December 31 per calendar year.
My proposed dental treatment is over $1,000. The dental office is requiring that I pay 50% of the cost before they will remove my wisdom teeth. Is that an unusual request?
- Some dental providers require partial payment up front to protect themselves from not being paid. In order to protect yourself, you should request a pretreatment review when charges for a proposed dental treatment are over $500 for you or your dependent.
  
  Ask your dentist to submit a claim form showing the proposed services and fees. This "Predetermination" of Benefits will take into account Usual and Customary, Benefit Limitations and alternate procedures. You will know before any work begins just what your benefits should be. You and your dentist can then discuss the proposed procedures and the benefits you will receive before you have incurred any charges.
