Delta Dental Debuts Individual Coverage
New plan provides individual coverage for first time in company
history.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) September 18, 2007 --
Delta Dental of Tennessee is now offering the Delta
Dental Individual Plan, dental coverage plans for individuals
and families residing in Tennessee. After more than 35 years in the
industry, Delta Dental’s new Individual Plan
is the first of its kind in company history.
The
Delta Dental Individual Plan offers an affordable alternative
for individuals and families who otherwise do not have access to
group-based dental insurance. Enrollees of the new plan will have access
to the Delta Dental Premier Network.
This network is the largest in the nation with more than 121,000
dentists in more than 174,000 office locations. The Individual Plan
features superior benefits, including preventive, basic and major
services starting at less than $30 per month. As an added value, members
will also enjoy:
-
Vision care discounts up to 30 percent through EyeMed Vision CareSM
-
Hearing care discounts and free screenings from Beltone™
-
Pharmacy discounts from CareMark®
-
Access to Passport DentalSM, an international
referral service for dental emergencies when traveling abroad
“Not everyone is fortunate to have access to
employer-based group benefits such as dental insurance,”
says Phil Wenk, D.D.S., president and CEO of Delta Dental of Tennessee. “We
created this plan for working class citizens, as well as retirees,
across Tennessee so they can better maintain their oral health and
potentially keep their overall healthcare costs down.”
Since its inception, Delta Dental has provided dental benefits to
Tennessee’s leading employers. In addition to
the Individual Plan, the company offers group benefits starting with
only two employees. For more information on the Individual Plan or to
enroll, call (800) 223-3104 or visit www.DeltaDentalTn.com.
Delta Dental of Tennessee, with its affiliates in Ohio, Indiana,
and Michigan is one of the largest dental plan administrators in the
nation. In 2006, the enterprise paid out more than $1.7 billion for
dental care for more than 6.2 million enrollees. Offices are located in
Okemos, Farmington Hills, and Grand Rapids, Michigan; Columbus and
Cleveland, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Nashville, Knoxville, and
Memphis, Tennessee.
