Regular dental hygiene can have a big impact on your health and wellbeing. Your Dual Fully Integrated (HMO D-SNP) coverage includes:
- up to $500 allowance every year for non-Medicare covered preventive and comprehensive dental services. You are responsible for any amount above the dental coverage limit. Any amount unused at the end of the year will expire.
Your benefit can be used for most dental treatments such as:
- Preventive dental services, such as exams and routine cleanings
- Basic dental services, such as fillings and extractions
- Major dental services, such as periodontal scaling, crowns, dentures, root canals, and bridges
The allowance cannot be used on fluoride, cosmetic services and implants.
Certain dental services, including cleanings, fillings, and dentures, are available through the Illinois Medicaid Dental Program.
We pay for some dental services when the service is an integral part of specific treatment of a person’s primary medical condition.
Prior authorization may be required for services. For a full list of covered services, refer to your Member Handbook.
