Learn More About the Benefits of Blue Cross Blue Shield
As your child gets older, you want to instill excellent oral hygiene habits! However, even if your child is an avid brusher and flosser, there are still going to be places that they miss. As their smile continues to grow and develop, there can be some bumps along the way. This is where their routine dental cleanings and checkups come in. A great way to make these visits more affordable is with dental insurance. You can further lessen your out-of-pocket costs by choosing an in-network pediatric dentist. At Casper Children’s Dental Clinic, we are proud to work directly with Blue Cross Blue Shield to negotiate the lowest possible cost for your family. Read on to learn more about how you can save with your plan!
Blue Cross Blue Shield Coverage Availability & Fees
When you pay your monthly premium, you gain access to more affordable dental care. Once you meet your annual deductible, your insurance provider will cover a portion of the cost of your treatment. Every plan is a little bit different, but here’s what a typical plan from Blue Cross Blue Shield may look like.
- 100% coverage on preventive services
- 80% coverage on basic restorative services
- 50% coverage on major restorative services
Blue Cross Blue Shield’s focus is mainly preventive care. When your child sees their dentist for routine checkups twice a year, oral health issues can be prevented before developing. If, despite your child’s best efforts, an issue does pop up, you can use the annual allowance to offer the cost of necessary restorative procedures.
Remember that at the end of the calendar year, your benefits expire. They don’t carry over to the next year, so it is in your best interest to utilize your coverage!
