Discount plans are different from insurance, so it's only natural there'll be questions. Here, we'll go over the most common.
A dental discount plan is an affordable, contemporary way to save on the cost of dental treatment, including routine, preventive, specialty and cosmetic services such as braces, veneers and whitening. If you already have dental insurance, the discount plan can help you save on dental work that's not covered under your dental insurance plan or once you have met your annual maximum. This plan allows you to visit any participating general dentist or specialist and pay a discounted fee for treatment at the time of service.
Yes, if you currently participate in a dental insurance plan, the Careington Dental Discount Plan provides additional savings after you've reached your annual maximum and helps you save on services not typically included in a traditional dental insurance plan, such as cosmetic services.
The Careington Dental Discount Plan is not insurance. Careington's dental discount plan provides you with access to discounted fees on dental treatment when you visit a participating network provider.
Careington's dental discount plans work simply and effectively for millions of members nationwide. Simply locate a participating provider using our online provider search tool, or by calling Careington Concierge Services toll-free at (844) 377-3368, then schedule your appointment and show your Careington ID card at the time of your visit. As a Careington member, you'll pay the discounted fee at the time of service.
On average, discounts range from 20% to 60% off of participating dentists' typical fees. Want to get a better idea of how much you'll pay? Call Careington Concierge Services toll-free at (844) 377-3368 with your (ADA) dental treatment code, and we can tell you the typical charge for treatment.
You'll receive a fee schedule with your membership ID card and welcome kit. A fee schedule is a list of dental procedures that tells you the discounted price you'll pay for each service. Fee schedules are assigned by ZIP code, and discounted fees can vary by location. Fee schedules are always available through the online provider search tool, which includes a fee look-up feature. Simply search for a participating general dentist or specialist, then click on the link next to each provider to see what you'll pay for treatment when you visit that provider.
When calling to book an appointment or to request pricing from your participating provider, you'll need to let them know the name of your plan, which is included on your Careington ID card. Check the plan logo at the bottom right corner of your card, and call Careington Concierge Services toll-free at (844) 377-3368 if you need any assistance.
The Careington Dental Discount Plan is an unlimited-use plan. That means you can use the plan as much as you want, with no limits on use or how much you can save.
Everyone in your household can receive discounts on dental care! Just make sure to include their information when enrolling in the plan.
You can find participating providers by using our online provider search tool, or by calling Careington Concierge Services toll-free at (844) 377-3368, Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. CT. You can visit any participating network provider and change providers at any time.
Another great feature of the dental discount plan is your ability to visit any participating provider from a nationwide network of general dentists and specialists. Household members can select their own participating providers, and you can change providers at any time without notifying us.
You will only receive a discount from a participating specialist. You might try sharing a list of participating providers with your dentist to see if they could recommend any of the participating specialist locations. Participating specialists will provide 20% savings off their usual and customary charges.
You can nominate a dentist for participation in the network by visiting our online provider search tool and selecting "NOMINATE A PROVIDER." Careington will contact the provider about joining our network. As network participation is at the provider's discretion, we will make every effort to successfully recruit your dentist. Because we carefully screen each new provider, this process may take 60 to 90 days before a new provider is active on our plan.
