Can I drop-off my application and premium payment?

Premium payments are accepted via the methods listed above. Please do not remit payment to your Willamette Dental Group dental office. The dental office cannot accept payments from patients for insurance premiums.

Can I sign up and still go to my own dentist?

To receive the excellent benefits of your Willamette Dental Group plan, you should receive care from a Willamette Dental Group dentist or specialist. Your coverage also extends if you are referred to an outside dentist or specialist by your Willamette Dental Group dentist. If referred to an outside dentist or specialist, your copayments remain the same as shown in your Summary of Benefits.

When can I start using my coverage?

If the application and premium payment is received by the 25th of the month, your coverage will be effective on the first of the following month.

How do I know how much Willamette Dental Group charges for dental procedures?

After we receive your payment of premium for your individual plan, you will be mailed a printed copy of the plan policy. Please refer to this policy for a list of copayments for covered dental procedures. The costs of many dental services are covered with a reasonable service copayment.

For questions about the costs of specific procedures not covered under the plan, you may contact our Member Services Department at 855-433-6825.

Are there benefit waiting periods under these plans?
