Brokers: What Your Clients Want in a Dental Plan

May 19, 2015 By Social Media Collaborative

As a broker, your clients look to you to help them decide which benefits plans make the most sense for their company and employees. Help your clients choose a dental benefits carrier wisely by discussing the following factors:

One size doesn’t fit all.

As the nation’s oldest and most experienced dental benefits carrier, Delta Dental offers a wide variety of plans for groups of all sizes. We also provide creative options for groups with limited budgets.

Network size matters.

Delta Dental covers more than 62 million Americans in more than 114,000 groups across the country. And our robust provider network helps employers achieve significant cost savings.

• Delta Dental Premier® is the largest provider network in the country, with 148,000 participating providers.

• The Delta Dental PPOSM network has more than 95,000 participating providers with an even greater discount for members.

• A recent dental network study shows that Delta Dental’s PPO plan delivers the industry’s best effective discount — averaging 20.3% nationally on paid claims.

Employees want dental benefits.

Dental benefits contribute to employee retention and satisfaction. The statistics speak for themselves. In 2000, only 31% of all businesses offered dental benefits. Today, 53% of employers offer dental coverage. Offering dental benefits may also help employers attract new talent. New grads rank dental insurance among the top 5 most important workplace benefits.
