Voluntary Dental and Vision Plans

Protect your smile — and your health with the Aetna Voluntary Dental Plan.

Every $1 you spend on preventive dental care could save you $8 to $50 in future treatment costs.¹

Dental coverage can help you pay for checkups, cleanings and common procedures.
Most people know that they should see a dentist twice a year. Taking proper care of your teeth is just as important as going to the doctor. In fact, there’s a strong connection between the health of your teeth and mouth and your overall health. Researchers have identified diseases of the teeth and gums as risk factors for diabetes, kidney and heart disease, stroke, preterm birth and some cancers. Plus, dental infections can be painful and costly.

Four great reasons to consider our Voluntary Dental Plan.
1. It’s affordable. Coverage is available at group rates from a top health insurance provider
2. It’s flexible. There are no restrictions on the choice of dentists — you choose the dentist you want to see.
3. It’s convenient. You can pay for your coverage through payroll deduction.
4. It’s for your entire family. Your children and spouse are also eligible for coverage.

Here’s how the plan works:
After you pay the $50 deductible, the plan pays up to $500 per year for certain procedures and services for each covered person.

Protect your eyesight — and your health with the Aetna Voluntary Vision Plan.

This valuable coverage gives you access to vision care.
Vision disorders are the second most prevalent health problem in the country, according to the National Eye Institute, affecting two-thirds of our population. And these numbers are expected to increase as our population ages.

Regular eye exams for you and your family are important to maintaining healthy vision and can often detect major medical problems in the early stages of development, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.

Four great reasons to consider our Voluntary Vision Plan.
1. It’s affordable. Coverage is available at group rates from a top health insurance provider, Aetna.
2. It’s flexible. You can choose to cover just yourself, you and your spouse, or your entire family.
3. It’s convenient. You can pay for your coverage through payroll deduction.
4. It has additional discounts. The coverage includes valuable saving on other products and services like eye glasses, contact lenses, and LASIK surgery.

Here’s how the plan works:
Vision coverage provides a $100 annual vision care insurance benefit for each covered family member. The program includes coverage for routine eye exams, eyeglasses, and contact lenses. Aetna Vision Preferred members can receive the most cost-effective care when they visit one of the more than 48,000 available vision practice locations across the country.

Please remember these are group plans that are available through your employer and not offered on an individual basis. Please ask you employer to inquire about Aetna Voluntary Plans.
