The Inner Workings<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dental insurance works much the same as health insurance. You pay a premium every month or year, which gains you access to a Jacksonville dentist<\/a> for benefits such as checkups, cleanings, x-rays and other services. After you have a procedure, the dental office will file a claim to the insurance company to pay for part or all the cost. The remainder, if any, is sent to you for payment.<\/p>\n

Types of Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are several types of dental insurance plans. The following are the most popular:<\/p>\n

1. Dental Health Management Organization (DHMO)<\/strong>
\nThis is a prepaid dental plan that only works with network providers. The dentist in Jacksonville agrees to accept a lower fee schedule to help you with the cost of premiums. You have no deductible or annual maximum; however, you may pay a fixed co-pay for some dental procedures.<\/p>\n

2. PPO Dental Plan<\/strong>
\nYou can receive services from any dentist in Jacksonville. The cost may be lower when you use a network dentist. You may have an annual deductible to meet before the plan starts to pay benefits. Once the insurance pays its part of the bill, you will receive a statement for your part.<\/p>\n

3. Indemnity Plan<\/strong>
\nThis is a traditional insurance plan. The insurance company pays a percentage of the charge for a service. You pay the remainder.<\/p>\n
