Dental Plan
Group Number 434378
Benefit Period January 1, 2022 – December 31, 2022
Your dental coverage is through Guardian and the dental network is Dental Guard Preferred. Network dentists agree to accept Guardian’s usual, customary & reasonable (UCR) amounts as payment in full for covered services. Non-network dentists will bill you for any difference in cost between the Guardian scheduled amount and the dentist’s fee (balance billing).
To avoid balance billing you should select providers within the network. Frequency limitations apply to certain services.
