My patient is covered under two dental plans. How is his/her coverage handled?
Typically one of the dental plans will be considered the primary plan for your patient. This plan will pay towards their dental care first. Any additional plans that they are covered under will pay towards whatever portion is remaining. Your patient's plan information will have a coordination of benefits provision that explains how it is handled by their plan. Regardless of how the coordination is handled, the plans cannot pay more than 100 percent of the cost of treatment.
