Hybrid Dental Plans

Two dental plans in one

 


Aetna Dental® Freedom of Choice benefits and dental insurance plan gives you the ease of offering one plan, while employees choose between the advantages of two. It’s a Dental Maintenance Organization (DMO®)* plan with either a Preferred Provider Organization PPO**  or Indemnity plan option. It’s your choice. 

  • Preventive, basic and major services are covered.
  • Pay a blended rate no matter which plans employees use.
  • Employees can easily switch between plans each month. They just need to call Member Services. Or they can log on to our secure member website.
  • They just need to make their switch by 15th day of the current month to be effective the 1st day of the next month.
  • To learn more, view the Freedom of Choice video.

Plan features

Nationwide employees can share a common plan, so dental insurance benefits are the same across all company locations.

  • They can get DMO* benefits with lower out-of-pocket costs, or
  • Switch to a PPO or Indemnity dental insurance plan for a broader choice of dentists.

Funding options

  • DMO* plan is available as fully funded only.
  • PPO and Indemnity dental plans are available as fully or self-funded.
