Good news for kids under DeltaCare® USA plans: Delta Dental has increased the age limit for pediatric dental coverage through the age of 13 (up from 7). That means more kids can keep seeing the dentist they are most comfortable with for a longer period of time.
Children through the age of 13 are now covered for pediatric dental visits under all DeltaCare USA plans. This change allows groups to offer more competitive benefits to their members, which can increase employee satisfaction. And it allows you to pitch even stronger plans that show Delta Dental's commitment to excellence.
Benefits for Brokers
You act as an advocate for your client's employees, making sure they can help parents get access to the proper coverage for their children by integrating dental care into the fabric of family health. With this change, you can make it easy for employees’ children to continue to see pediatric specialists throughout their formative years. You'll also find it easier to:
- Reinforce DeltaCare's commitment to pediatric care, increasing the likelihood of successful plan sales.
- Align your recommendations with evolving family needs, fostering trust and loyalty in the process.
Benefits for Clients
The increase in the age limit for pediatric dental coverage can be a powerful tool in setting a business apart as an employer of choice. Here's why:
- Organizations that actively promote the well-being of employees and their dependents find it easier to attract and retain top talent — particularly among candidates seeking a supportive and family-friendly work environment.
- Achieving improved health and well-being both at home and work enhances employee satisfaction and engagement, contributing to a more positive organizational culture.
- Absenteeism may decline because providing improved preventive care for kids through age 13 means parents may need less time off to tend to dental care needs.
