Dental / Vision

DENTAL BENEFITS

Denver Health offers two dental insurance plan options through Delta Dental of Colorado.

The Low and High plans offer in- and out-of-network benefits, providing you the freedom to choose any provider.

Both plans offer a three-tier network structure. You will receive the greatest discounts and lowest out-of-pocket costs when you choose to see a PPO network provider.

To find a provider, visit deltadentalco.com/dentist-search.html and under “Plans participating in,” select Delta Dental PPO Plus Premier.

Maximum Allowable Charge (MAC): Claims for out-of-network providers are paid according to a PPO fee schedule (the maximum amount Delta Dental will pay), meaning you will pay more when you see a non-PPO provider.

The table below summarizes key features of the dental plans. The coinsurance amounts listed reflect the amount you pay. Please refer to the official plan documents for additional information on coverage and exclusions.
