Frequently Asked Questions

When will my plan take effect?
The plan goes into effect the 1st day of the second month following receipt of application.

Can I really go to any dentist?
Yes, benefits are payable to any licensed dental provider. Dentists can call Ameritas prior to treatment to verify how the claim will be paid. But if you use one of our approximately 60,000 PPO dentists nationwide, you could receive even greater savings. Visit www.ameritasgroup.com to get a listing.

Can I participate in this plan along with the dental plan I currently have?
Yes, this plan will have a true coordination of benefits. After your claim is coordinated with other insurance companies and if the claim payment exceeds billed charges, our Dental Bank Feature creates an account for your future dental needs.

What day will the premium be deducted?
If you choose the P.A.I.D. method of payment, the money will be taken out of your account between the 10th and the 15th of every month for the following month’s premium. If you choose the credit card method of payment, the money will be taken out of your account around the 20th of every month for the following month’s premium.
