Whats the best Health, Dental, Vision insurance to get with a PPO that has 100% coverage in everything?

Blue Cross Blue Shield??
--------------------
you will only find what's best for you by spending a couple of weeks getting quotes by everyone then comparing them. Sounds like a lot of work, the alternative is to go with the first one someone suggests and then just hope and that's what most people do.

Dental Insurance in New York??

I NEED BRACES !! and my insurance doesn't cover it !!! You know any plans that will cover this coast.. or cover at least half !!???
--------------------
Definitely check out this site, http://www.mybenefitsplus.com/cberney Do a search for either your current Dentists, or at least one that is near you, and call them up to see just what it would cost should you use the Ameriplan card & get your braces. Typically the average cost of braces runs anywhere from $5000-5500. When my aunt used the Ameriplan provider and discount to get my cousins done, she only paid $2100 in total. And they also set that up on a payment plan for her. So it's definitely worth checking out. And if you need help or have any questions, feel free to send me a note here and I'd be happy to help.

Dental insurance claim, what can I do?

7 months ago I went to the dentist and I had a tooth that needed a peridontist to do surgery on. I went to the peridontist about 4 months later, had an evaluation, and later had the surgery. The insurance paid 80% for the service as promised. Then a month ago I had my 6 month check up, which the insurance only paid a fraction of. I have had this insurance and this dentist for years and haven't had to pay for check-ups so I called up the insurance to ask why. They said part of the claim was called an evaluation and I had an evaluation less than 6 monthes ago. I assured them it had been over 6 months since I'd been to the dentist and they said it was with the peridontist. I explained that was a peridontist and the other was my dentist check up and she said it didn't matter - you can only have one evaluation in 6 months. I asked if I could do anything since this sounded absurd. She gave me a fax # to file a grieviance. Has anyone done this? Do I stand a chance? What should I make sure to include? Thanks!
--------------------
Go talk to the person at your dentist office who does the billing. Is there another code that could be applied to this visit? If so, can the change it and re-submit the bill?

I live in Austin, and have a terrible toothache. I don't have dental insurance, and can not get approved for Care Credit. Does anyone know of a dentist in Austin who will work out a payment plan with me? Or of a dental school who does the work for cheaper? Any help is very useful!! Thanks!!
--------------------
you may want to post this question in the austin section just so you can get more specific answers, but tons of dentists will allow you to be their patient without insurance. dont have insurance and ive had braces, my wisdom teeth pulled, etc. just ask friends, neighbors, family etc.

I am starting Radiation and Chemo next week. This morning I woke up with a tooth abscessed. I have no dental?

I do not have any dental insurance... and am on Medicaid which doesn't cover dental visits for adults. I also dont have a regular doctor, only a GYN Oncologist. What should I do??
--------------------
Get in touch with your GYN oncologist and seek their advice first. They may have to delay the Chemo. Maybe they can prescribe something for you. Try to find out from your local Human Resource Dept., if your area has a free clinic. They may have dentists on staff as well. If that is not the case, you can go to the emergency room for some antibiotics to fight the infection. While you are undergoing treatment, it is one of the most important things to keep absolutely impeccable oral hygiene. Brush gently for two minutes after each meal, that usually means more than twice a day, floss at least once, even better would be after each meal. In addidtion you could get a water pik to flush between the teeth in the evenings with some diluted Listerine. Maybe you could even get a fluoride prescription for Prevident or a similar product from one of the doctors. If you cannot, buy Act fluoride rinse and use it every day. Best wishes for your treatments.

Are braces typically covered by insurance?

I've heard they're not. We have Delta Dental insurance. I'm waiting for a reply from them. But is anyone familiar with this?
--------------------
My insurance paid 50%. The book my mom got from her job had the information of dental and I looked in there and it had it listed 50% for orthodontics. If you know who you are going to use as your orthodontists go to them and give them your card and usually they can find out the coverage for you. When I went to get my counsultation 2 years ago they got the info to give me everything as down payment, payments each month and how long I'll have them on. You just will have to see with who you choose.
