Dental
Members have two options for their dental election, the option to participate in the Quality Care Dental Plan (QCDP) or the option not to have dental coverage. Members who elect not to have dental coverage cannot change that election until the Benefit Choice Period, without exception.
The Quality Care Dental Plan is administered by CompBenefits. Members can utilize any dental provider and will have charges for dental procedures paid according to the Schedule of Benefits.
Most providers will file the dental claim with CompBenefits electronically, but for those who do not, the member must complete a CompBenefits Claim form (PDF 33 KB) and send to the address on the form.
Effective October 1, 2009, dental coverage for retirees and survivors will no longer be provided free of charge. Please see a copy of the Dental Retiree letter [PDF, 16KB] that was mailed on August 18, 2009, to all retirees and survivors regarding this change.
