Humana Offers New Dental Plan

Online, April 17, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Atlanta, Georgia (March 31, 2010) - Although most people focus on medical care when they are looking for health insurance, there are other important health services that we all use. Many people's health insurance plans do not offer adequate coverage of dental or vision medical services. In particular, many health insurance policies exclude dental services. Members of health insurance plans are required to purchase additional riders or supplements to their current policy, in order to have dental health insurance. However, regular dental exams and cleaning can help detect gum disease, which can impact other serious medical conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. Taking care of one's dental health is another very important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

But recently, Humana Dental Insurance Company, one of the nation's ten largest dental insurance carriers in the United States, has made some big announcements. Humana Dental now has a stand alone dental health insurance plan. That means that even if you have health insurance from another carrier, you can purchase just a dental health insurance policy from Humana. This allows individuals to compare prices, and determine whether their current health insurance carrier has a reasonably priced rider they can add on to their policy, or whether a stand alone dental health insurance policy from Humana Dental Insurance Company is a better value. This may also lead to more competitive pricing among the dental health insurance plans. Also, many insurance carriers do not even offer dental insurance riders to their members, so those individuals now have options too.

Ted Officer, President of USA-healthinsurance.com, states, "No other big name insurance company offers this kind of policy. We have provided individual and families affordable health insurance plans for years, and now we have an affordable dental insurance plan as well. We have been waiting a long time for this." Humana Dental has many different kinds of plans, but they emphasize preventive care. So, even their most affordable plans provide coverage for the most basic, necessary preventive dental services. There are also plans that cover orthodontics, even for adults, for those individuals needing more intensive dental treatment.

Humana has a national network of more than 100,000 dentists, and they continue to expand. Humana has negotiated discounted rates with their network providers, so prices are on average 28% lower. This is a valuable benefit to members of a Humana dental plan. Humana has a proven track record of meeting all governmental regulations and providing excellent customer service, especially when it comes to speed answering phone calls.
