Dental Insurance
The State of Texas Dental
Choice Plan-the State's
indemnity plan-is
administered by Humana Texas
Dental Choice PPO. The
dental choice plan does not
restrict your choice of
dentists, but it does limit
payment based on your choice
on dentist. Using a
participating dentist will
result in a higher
percentage of charges paid.
The Dental Maintenance Plan – Humana DHMO-The dental
maintenance plan provides dental coverage to you and your
covered dependents through a network of participating dentists.
You MUST select a dentist and obtain services from that dentist
in order to be covered for benefits; however you may change
dentists as often as you like. There is no deductible and your
out-of-pocket expense is based upon the schedule of benefits and
the services you receive. The participating dentist will file
claims for you. A fee schedule and list of providers are
available from the Benefits Office. You are covered for all
services, including major dental procedures, as of the effective
date of the plan. Generally, the co-payments represent about a
50% to 90% discount in normal fees. You receive a 30% discount
for treatment by a specialist.
