Dental and vision coverage
By Mimi Vanderhaven
Some people think they don’t need dental or vision coverage and end up shocked when costly problems arise. The health of your mouth is connected to virtually every system in the body, which makes having a dental plan in place a smart option.
And having a vision plan in place can be the key to having a healthy outlook.
HealthMarkets offers a convenient and budget-friendly way to include dental and vision coverage in your preparedness arsenal.
Plans may be available that offer coverage without waiting periods for preventive, basic and most major services. The best part is you can start using your benefits right away, which means you have immediate coverage for routine services like exams and cleanings, plus major repairs like crowns and root canals.
Vision health is also important and there are plans that include coverage for annual vision exams, plus coverage for glasses and contacts.
Vision networks will depend on the plan you choose but may include private practices or leading retail providers. You have access to the dental and vision networks, which include providers who have agreed to negotiated rates to help lower your costs.
You can select a plan that best balances your premium and out-of-pocket expenses.
