DENTAL

Pitkin County offers a dental insurance plan administered by Allegiance. The plan offers in- and out-of-network benefits, providing you the freedom to choose any provider. However, you will pay less out of your pocket when you choose an in-network provider.

• Locate a network provider at askallegiance.com/pitkin. Go to "Find a Provider" > "Cigna-In-Network" > Check off the "(Accept)" box > "Continue to Cigna Provider Search Page" > then "Enter Address, City or Zip" > "Doctor by Type" > "General Dentist" > "Continue As Guest" > "Total Cigna DPPO (Cigna DPPO Advantage and Cigna (DPPO) or Cigna DPPO Advantage networks." 

• Although the in- and-out-of-network benefits appear to be the same, it is important to note that out-of-network providers may balance bill you for charges over the reasonable and customary (R&C) amounts. To avoid additional charges, utilize an in-network provider.

The table below summarizes the key features of the dental plan. The coinsurance amounts listed reflect the amount you pay. Please refer to the Summary Plan Document (SPD) for additional information on coverage and exclusions
