Dental Insurance for Realtors®

NAR is pleased to introduce REALTORS® Dental Insurance, an affordable and valuable benefit for NAR members nationwide.

REALTORS® Dental Insurance plans are the only dental plans designed exclusively for National Association of REALTORS® members and their families. Plans provide coverage for preventive, basic, and major dental expenses with the dentist of your choice. There are four plans to choose from and most plans include bonus benefits like orthodontia, professional whitening, dental rewards, and more.

REALTORS® Dental Plan Benefits
Over 300 covered procedures. Highlights include:

• Preventive Dental Benefits (no deductible): Routine exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, and more
• Basic Dental Benefits: Full mouth X-rays, bitewings, amalgam restoration, simple and complex extractions, surgical removal of teeth, deep sedation/general anesthesia, and more
• Major Dental Benefits: Onlays, maxillary partial denture – resin base, denture repair, endodontics – root canal, periodontal scaling and root planning, crown and crown repairs, pontics – porcelain fused to noble metal, and more

Bonus Benefits: Orthodontia, Cosmetic, and More
Bonus benefits are available with Platinum, Gold, and Silver Plans.

• Orthodontia Benefits: A lifetime benefit available to dependent children of the plan.
• Cosmetic Benefits: Professional tooth bleaching, also referred to as whitening, has become a popular cosmetic procedure. With this benefit, plan members can enjoy having a healthy, white smile that will boost self-confidence and add sparkle to their appearance.
• Dental Rewards: A valuable feature which allows qualifying plan members to carryover part of their unused annual maximum.
• Laser Vision Correction Coverage Benefit: LASIK Advantage provides coverage for LASIK and related procedures, including standard LASIK, Custom LASIK, LASIK with Wavefront Technology, Custom Vue LASIK, LASIK with IntraLase technology and Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK). Members earn a lifetime benefit per eye over time.

REALTORS® Dental Plan Highlights

• Eligibility: As long as you are a member of NAR you are eligible for these valuable dental plans.
• Freedom of Choice: You’re free to visit any licensed dentist. These plans do have a preferred network (PPO) of dentists available nationwide; your out-of-pocket costs will decrease significantly if you visit a PPO dentist.
• Large Nationwide Network (PPO): When you visit a participating Ameritas Dental PPO provider, you save money. Ameritas PPO providers have agreed to charge reduced fees to member clients. The Ameritas Dental network is comprised of more than 83,000 dentist locations nationwide. You can use a simple online directory to easily find a provider in your area. PPO dentists must meet Ameritas credentialing and quality assurance evaluation requirements.

Claims Convenience: You will receive an ID card to present to your dentist at the time of service. The dentist can submit bills to Ameritas, which will pay the dentist directly. You’ll receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statement, which will explain how benefits were covered. For your information, claims are available to view online at any time.

• Maximum Covered Expense (MCE): MCE is an easy-to-understand benefit at a very affordable rate. You know exactly what the plan pays for each covered procedure, and pay the difference between that amount and the dentist’s fee. You will receive additional out-of-pocket savings when using an Ameritas PPO provider.
• Easy Online Billing: You may pay your bill online or have your premiums automatically deducted from your account. You can access your account 24/7 and receive e-mail alerts to be notified of upcoming withdrawals.
• Personal Service: You will have access to professional U.S. customer service support from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. (CST). We want you to understand your coverage and be satisfied with the results.
• Credit for Existing Plans: If you have existing coverage under another dental plan you may enroll in a REALTORS® Dental Insurance Plan and receive carryover credit for meeting waiting periods.
