Dental plan for groups
Dental Blue®
With Dental Blue, employers have the freedom to decide
whether to contribute to their employee’s dental
coverage. Employers who choose to contribute purchase
the True Group plan. Employers who wish not to contribute
can still offer their employees coverage with the Voluntary
plan.
True Group requires that the employer contribute at
least 50% of the employee premium. To take advantage
of True Group, at least 75% of a company’s employee’s
must enroll. True Group also allows customization. Employers
can design a dental plan by selecting a combination
of deductible, annual maximum and coinsurance amounts.
In addition to providing diagnostic/preventive, basic
and major dental services, the True Group plan offers
employees the added benefit of optional orthodontic
care. This coverage includes a 50% coinsurance level
with a choice of different lifetime maximums.
Employers can also offer voluntary dental benefits
to their employees. The Voluntary plan provides dental
coverage for employees without incurring expense for
the employer. To offer a Voluntary plan, at least 30%
of a company’s employee’s must enroll. Employees
can choose to pay the full premium through convenient
payroll deductions.
Employers can purchase a dental plan in conjunction
with a health plan or purchase a dental plan only. If
employers combine a Dental Blue plan with a Blue Cross
and Blue Shield of North Carolina health plan, they
will pay only one bill and their employees will have
only one ID card.
