Passport Health Plan is proud to announce a new coverage option for adult members – dental care. This addition to the Passport Health Plan offers a comprehensive dental benefit to adults, ensuring access to quality oral health services.
The decision to include dental coverage for adults comes as a response to the growing recognition of the importance of oral health in overall health and well-being. Poor dental health can lead to a range of serious health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory problems. By offering dental coverage, Passport Health Plan seeks to promote better health outcomes for its members and reduce the risk of these preventable health conditions.
This new benefit will cover a wide range of dental services, including preventive care, such as regular check-ups, cleanings, and x-rays, as well as restorative treatments like fillings, extractions, and root canals. Additionally, members will have access to emergency dental services, ensuring that they can receive prompt care in the event of a dental emergency.
“We are excited to be able to offer this new dental benefit to our adult members,” says Dr. Jane Smith, Chief Medical Officer at Passport Health Plan. “We know that good oral health is essential for overall health, and we are committed to providing our members with the care and support they need to maintain healthy smiles.”
In addition to traditional dental services, Passport Health Plan will also cover orthodontic treatments for adults, including braces and other orthodontic appliances. This is particularly important for adults who may have put off orthodontic treatment in the past due to cost concerns. Passport Health Plan’s coverage for orthodontic treatments will help adults achieve the straight, healthy smiles they deserve.
To access the new dental benefit, adult members simply need to present their Passport Health Plan ID card at any participating dental provider. Members can choose from a network of dentists and specialists who have been carefully selected for their expertise and commitment to providing high-quality care.
“We have worked closely with our dental providers to ensure that our members receive the best possible care,” says Dr. Smith. “Our network of dental providers is dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care to our members, and we are confident that they will be able to meet the unique needs of each individual.”
The inclusion of dental coverage for adults is just one example of Passport Health Plan’s commitment to improving the health and well-being of its members. In addition to dental care, Passport Health Plan offers a range of other benefits to support members in achieving their health goals, including mental health services, substance abuse treatment, and wellness programs.
“We believe that access to quality health care is a fundamental right, and we are dedicated to providing our members with the care and support they need to live healthy, fulfilling lives,” says Dr. Smith. “We will continue to explore new ways to meet the evolving needs of our members and ensure that they receive the care and support they deserve.”
Overall, the addition of dental coverage for adults represents a significant milestone for Passport Health Plan and its members. By offering comprehensive dental benefits, Passport Health Plan is helping adults access the care they need to maintain healthy smiles and improve their overall health. With this new benefit in place, members can look forward to brighter, healthier smiles and better health outcomes in the future.
