UnitedHealthcare Dental PPO

Georgetown University retirees have access to a voluntary dental benefit through UnitedHealthcare. 

Eligibility

To be eligible for this dental plan, you and any dependents you enroll must also be enrolled in a Georgetown-sponsored retiree medical plan and will be responsible for the full cost of coverage. When enrolling, you can choose from Employee Only, Employee + Spouse, or Family coverage.

Plan Information

The UnitedHealthcare dental plan is a PPO plan that allows you to go to the dentist of your choice and receive benefits.  For maximum benefits, you must receive services from a network dentist.  If you receive services from a non-network dentist, your out-of-pocket costs will be higher.  Regardless of whether you receive services from a network or non-network dentist, you’ll be reimbursed for all or part of your costs for covered procedures, up to a $1,500 calendar year maximum, after you have satisfied your deductible.

This benefit summary outlines covered services, exclusions and limitations under this plan.

Finding a Dentist

Visit the UHC website and select “Dentist Locator.”  When asked to select a plan, choose “Dental Options PPO.”

If your current dentist is not a participant in the UHC Dental Options PPO network, you may submit this nomination form to UnitedHealthcare.  A UHC representative will reach out to the dental office to see if they would like to join the network of participating providers.
