Delta Dental PPO

Delta Dental PPO, our preferred provider organization (PPO) program*, provides access to more than 95,000 PPO dentist locations nationwide. PPO dentists agree to accept reduced fees for covered procedures when treating PPO patients. This means your out-of-pocket costs are usually lower when you visit a PPO dentist than when you visit a non-Delta Dental dentist. When you’re covered under the PPO plan, you and your family members:

• Can visit any licensed dentist, including the dental specialist of your choice
• May change dentists at any time without notifying us
• Can receive dental care anywhere in the world
• Will never have to pay more than the patient’s share** at the time of treatment or file claim forms if you visit a Delta Dental dentist. Delta Dental dentists file claim forms for you and accept payment directly from Delta Dental.

*In Texas, Delta Dental Insurance Company underwrites a Dental Provider Organization (DPO) plan.
**Patient’s share is the copayment/coinsurance amount, any remaining portion of the deductible, any amounts over plan maximums and any non-covered services.
