Stay in network to save
Visit a dentist in the network to maximize your savings. These dentists have agreed to reduced fees, and you won't get charged more than your expected share of the bill. Find a dentist at dentalnetwork.ameritas.com.
Out-of-network Coverage
A dentist who is “out-of-network” means the provider hasn’t agreed to negotiated rates. The plan pays benefits based on a Fee Schedule charge for a particular service. If the out-of-network provider charges more, you’ll be responsible for paying the amount that exceeds the Fee Schedule limit plus the applicable coinsurance and deductible.
