Delta Dental, our dental plan vendor, recently wrote about network savings in the Delta Dental Benefits Spotlight. Our UNI Dental Plan has two networks, the Delta Dental PPOSM and Delta Dental Premier®. Delta Dental wrote the differences as:

  • Delta Dental PPO: Dentists in this network agree to the lowest fees for services and includes 43% of Iowa dentists.
  • Delta Dental Premier: Dentists in this network agree to lower fees for services and includes 93% of Iowa’s dentists and 80% of dentists nationwide.

You can check to see which network your dentist participates in by using the Find a Provider Tool or by asking your dentist.
