Preventive
Dental Options Can Save You Money In The Long
Run
HARTFORD,
CT (Managed Care Wire): Insurance giant Aetna
remains competitive with its new low-cost preventive
dental option, Aetna Dental Preventative Care
-- and it could result in healthier beneficiaries
overall.
The
new plan boasts exciting features, such as:
-
No
copays for services such as full-mouth x-rays, fluoride
treatments for children and bi-yearly cleanings;
-
No
out-of-pocket costs for patients who seek treatment
from Aetna's provider network;
-
A
choice of the annual limit on benefits;
-
Discounts
on non-covered services such as orthodontia and
bleaching for patients treated by Aetna dentists;
and
-
Discount
programs for vision and fitness.
Health
experts believe that good dental health can
improve overall health, and Aetna appears to
be paying attention. Not only does the company
stand to increase its member base with the new
dental product, it may also reap the benefits
of healthier benes and the resulting lower medical
costs.
