Learn More About the Benefits of Aetna
Does your family have a dental insurance plan from Aetna? If so, it may play an important role in keeping your child’s smile healthy and sound. It may allow them to enjoy low-cost preventive services, and it could reduce the financial strain of those times when their teeth need a bit of restorative care. How can you get the most out of your Aetna plan? Whether your benefits are through your employer or something you purchased on your own, our Southampton team is ready to assist you. As an in-network Aetna dentist, we are familiar with how your insurance works and can help you to maximize it.
Aetna Coverage Availability & Fees
Aetna offers a few different dental plans, so you should take a bit of time to learn the details of your unique policy. In the meantime, here is a general overview of the coverage that is often available through Aetna:
- Preventive services, such as cleanings, checkups, X-rays, and fluoride, may be 100% covered.
- Minor services, often including fillings and non-surgical extractions, can be up to 80% covered.
- Major services, such as crowns, may be up to 50% covered.
Keep in mind that not all plans cover all treatments, and you may be responsible for paying a deductible. Some plans also have a waiting period before you are eligible for certain services.
Because our practice is in-network with Aetna, we know how their plans work. We also have a contract that controls prices, so you can expect out-of-pocket fees to be reasonable when you visit us.
We will do all we can to help you get the most out of your plan’s annual maximum (the yearly limit on how much Aetna pays for approved services). If your child requires a major treatment, we may be able to break it up across calendar years so you can use two annual maximums instead of only one.
