People get confused and often make mistakes in choosing coverage. Knowing what these terms mean will help you make better decisions when it comes to choosing the right policy. Preauthorization Preauthorization is another word for predetermination of costs. This type of coverage requires your dentist to first submit a treatment plan to your provider. Your provider will examine the proposal and then determine what benefits will be covered. This decision is based on your eligibility, services that are covered, and any limitations inherent your dental insurance benefits plan. The intention of preauthorization is to prioritize and plan dental services and to allocate funding in advance to best match your coverage to cost. Coordination of Dental Insurance Benefits If you are covered by your policy and the policy of your spouse (also known as dual coverage), coordinating benefits will maximize the coverage you will receive from both dental insurance plans. Non-duplication of benefits Some companies do not allow their insured to coordinate benefits. They write a clause into the policy that prohibits overlap if the insured is covered by two separate policies.Dental Insurance Benefits]]> Dentsl]]> Health]]> Teeth]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Understanding-Dental-Insurance-Benefits-And-Picking-The-Right-One/803638 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:01:15 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Understanding-Dental-Insurance-Benefits-And-Picking-The-Right-One/803638
