Ameritas to Offer Benefit Enhancements During the Pandemic

Continue to get the most from your dental benefits

The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant financial and physical impact on millions of Americans. It’s more important than ever to seek the health care you need, but many find it difficult financially.

You purchased your Ameritas dental plan to make going to the dentist easy and affordable. And we want to make sure that continues.

Ameritas offers an extended premium grace period to help you maintain the dental coverage you need so you can see your dentist and stay healthy. Even though dental offices were closed temporarily, many are now opening with increased safety practices, so you can seek care in person.

Here are a couple ways Ameritas is helping you access dental care.

Elimination of dental deductible. We will waive the deductible for all dental claims incurred July 1 through December 31, 2020. Your plan benefits kick in right away. The deductible waiver does not apply to orthodontia claims.

Elimination of dental exam and cleaning frequency limitations. Ameritas dental plans typically cover the cost of one or two exams and cleanings each year. Your plan’s frequency limitation will be waived July 1 through December 31, 2020. So you can see the dentist when you need to and know you’re covered.
