Healthcare coverage enhances employee morale. Coverage is important, but your employees want options too.
Network size impacts the numbers of dentists who are able to serve your employees. The larger the network, the more likely your employees can stay with their current dentist and get the most out of their benefits plan. If employees are happy, so are you!
A few things to keep in mind:
• Consider dependents
The network size should be large enough to meet the needs of your employees and their dependents.
• Location, location, location
It’s advantageous to have at least 2 dental offices in the network within 5 or 10 miles of your office. (Less time out of the office for dental visits.)
• Share the benefits
Let employees know the benefits of network size. More than 95% of the dentists in Hawaii participate with HDS, and if they are on the Mainland, Delta Dental has the largest provider network in the country, with nearly 145,000 participating dentists.
Make sure you and your employees know the benefits of their network today!
