Summary
A dental preferred provider organization (PPO) works much like a traditional dental plan - you choose the dentist you want and pay deductible and coinsurance up to an annual maximum. But with our PPO plan, you'll generally save on the cost of your dental care when you use a dentist who participates in our network because your coinsurance is applied to a negotiated rate.

Please Note: In Texas, the Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) is known as the Participating Dental Network (PDN).

Summary
Aetna HealthFund^® with Dental/Aetna DentalFund^® are a consumer-directed family of products that combine a PPO or indemnity plan with an employer-paid health fund. They offer the comprehensive coverage of a traditional dental plan, plus a unique health fund benefit that allows you to choose the covered dental services you want from your choice of dentists.

Please Note: In Texas, the Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) is known as the Participating Dental Network (PDN).

Summary
Vital Savings by Aetna^® is a referral only plan - it is not an insurance plan. When members need care, they may visit any Aetna Dental Access^® participating dentist to access discounted dental services. At the time the service is performed, the member pays 100% of the PPO/PDN maximum fee schedule amount for the service.

Summary
The Exclusive Provider Plan (EPP) is like the PPO/PDN in that it uses the same fee schedule and claims submission processes. However, with the EPP plan, members do not receive coverage for non-emergency care provided by a non-participating dentist. Currently, the EPP is being offered only on a self-insured basis. Members with ID cards that say “EPP” should be billed in accordance with the PPO/PDN fee schedule.
