CPA ProtectPlus: The Delta Advantage

admin — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 18:00:16 +0000

The CalCPA Society-sponsored dental plan offers quality dental care at affordable rates. More than 92% of the dentists in California participate in this program underwritten by Delta Dental. These 16,000 Delta participating dentists will handle all your Delta paperwork for you at no cost, so you don’t need to worry about sending in claim forms or waiting for reimbursement. And you receive an even higher level of benefits when you select a DELTA Preferred Option dentist. There are more than 1,800 DELTA Preferred Option dentists in the state.

If you prefer to go to a dentist who does not participate in the Delta program, you may have to submit your own claims, and your benefits will be paid directly to you.

Claims Procedures

Whether you have received treatment abroad in a hospital, clinic or doctor’s office, or filled a prescription, be sure to save your receipts. Also, try to get the doctor’s, or hospital’s, write-up in English. Anthem Blue Cross provides translation services, but having information about your treatment in English will speed your claim.

In addition, if you pay by credit card, the billing will be in dollars, making the process of reimbursement both simpler and at a better exchange rate.

Similar procedures apply for Delta Dental as well, plus Delta will make allowances for out-of-network treatment when abroad. When you return home, you can use the standard claims forms to get reimbursed.
