What is a “Reduced Fee”
Dental Plan?
Benchmark Dental Plans are an effective alternative to dental insurance for both
you and your dentist. Benchmark Dental Plans is not dental insurance
but a Fee for Service Plan, also referred to as a Reduced Fee Plan. With
this plan, the participating dentists agree to discount their fees to you
anywhere from 50% to as much as 100% for a majority of dental services that
they offer.
Do I have to go to your
dentists?
Yes, you must use one of our participating dentists. To review a list of
available dentists in your area simply click on the search for dentist link on
our home page. Our website offers a unique feature by offering a resume on each
participating dentist to assist you in making a more informed decision when
choosing your dentist. You can review each dentist’s professional
qualification, educational history, office hours of operation, and much more
information.
Do I have to pay anything at
the dentists?
Yes, you are required to pay the fee indicated in the Fee Schedule at the
conclusion of your treatment. Remember, these dental fees are discounted to you
by 50% to as much as 100% savings off most dental services. The Fee Schedule is
available to you on-line and you will also receive the Fee Schedule in your
Membership package at the time of enrollment.
What is the advantage to
signing up with Benchmark Dental Plans?
Our plans offer guaranteed acceptance, no annual maximums, no waiting periods,
no claim forms, and no deductibles. In addition to this, we offer 100% savings
on preventative dental care (teeth cleanings, x-rays, etc.) which cannot be
matched by most other reduce fee plan companies. Most of these companies only
offer 25% to 80% savings on preventative dental care, not the 100% savings we
offer. We welcome you to shop around and you will quickly see that nobody can
match our fantastic savings.
Do you offer any plans
shorter than a year?
No, when you sign up for our plans you are obligated by contract to continue
membership for one year. After your one year contract obligation, you will
automatically be renewed in our plans for another year unless you notify us
otherwise.
