Healthy teeth and gums are important to your overall wellness. Huber offers coverage through Cigna to help you maintain your smile through regular preventive care and treatment for dental problems that may arise.

2024 dental plans

You can enroll in dental coverage as a new hire, during Annual Enrollment, or if you have a qualifying life event. To see your employee contributions and enroll, log in to the COMPASS website (or visit COMPASS through single sign-on access when inside the Huber Network if you have already registered

Dental I

You have a lower deductible and higher annual benefit, along with the opportunity to increase your maximum benefit by taking advantage of preventive care.  

Dental II

You pay less in paycheck employee contributions in exchange for a higher deductible and lower annual benefit maximum.

Dental Opt-Out

Earn money back if you select “Dental Opt-Out” for dental coverage. If you currently have the Dental Opt-Out coverage, this will automatically carry over to next year.

What if you don’t make any dental plan election?

If you don’t enroll as a new employee or if you have waived coverage in the past and do not take action during Annual Enrollment, you will automatically default to “No Coverage” and will not receive any money back. In order to enroll in a dental plan or receive money back for opting out, you must take action.

Take advantage of preventive care

With the Dental I plan, Huber offers the opportunity to increase your dental annual maximum when you receive preventive care such as cleanings, oral exams, and x-rays. Your annual dollar maximum will grow each year by $100 as long as you stay enrolled in the Dental I plan and keep getting preventive care. 

Example: If you and your eligible dependents each complete a routine cleaning in 2024, your annual dental maximum will increase by $100 in 2025, from $2,300 to $2,400. (This means members of the same family could have different annual dollar maximums in future years.)

A covered member can have up to three progressions in increases to their annual dollar maximum of $2,600.

Periodontal maintenance procedures following active therapy is covered under diagnostic/preventative (Class I) under both dental plans.

Use your dental benefits wisely

Here’s how to make the most of your dental benefits:

Choose a network provider.

Each time you need dental care, you have a choice of providers. Selecting a Cigna participating dentist will ensure you receive the highest benefits from your plan. To find a provider, go to the Cigna website.

Submit for a predetermination of coverage. 

Your Aetna medical plan covers oral surgery that is dental in nature, such as simple extractions. We strongly recommend that you ask your provider to submit requests for a predetermination of coverage to both Aetna and Cigna prior to any dental surgery being performed. 

Check your claim status.

You can review Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements, check if claims have been paid, print a dental ID proof of coverage and more on the Cigna website.
