Delta Dental EPO

Delta Dental is a nonprofit, group dental benefit administrator. For more than 60 years, Delta Dental has helped remove financial barriers to oral health services for more Americans than any other dental benefits carrier. We educate and empower people to take responsibility for their oral health. Delta Dental provides dental benefits for one of every four Americans with dental coverage.

Delta Dental EPO^TM (Exclusive Provider Organization) is a fee-for-service program. Payment for treatment is based on a fee schedule and member copayments. Delta Dental EPO participating dentists are reimbursed on the basis of the member copayment amount and the lesser of the submitted fee or Delta Dental’s maximum fee allowance, as payment in full when treating eligible Delta Dental EPO patients. Total payment will not exceed Delta Dental’s maximum approved fee allowance.

Participating dentists are listed in our closed-panel directory, and members are required to receive services from Delta Dental EPO dentists. Delta Dental remits benefit payments directly to participating dentists. Participating dentists collect only copayments from Delta Dental EPO members. As with other Delta Dental programs, you and your staff will have access to the Dental Office Toolkit^® and DASI (Delta Dental's IVR phone system) 24/7.

You can verify eligibility and access benefits and claims information through the Dental Office Toolkit. We recommend that you verify patient eligibility prior to rendering treatment. You also can access our DASI system 24/7 at 800-870-9988.
