4 key benefits of Willamette Dental by Premera
When your clients purchase Willamette Dental through Premera they get simplified plan administration and billing by dealing with only one health plan.
Here’s how Willamette Dental is different:
- Members and their families get a dental plan with predictable out-of-pocket costs, so they’re not surprised by unknown costs.
- Every member gets affordable orthodontic coverage at any age with no waiting periods and a predictable copay.
- Members will never exhaust their dental coverage and will never need to satisfy a deductible before they can receive their benefits, because our Willamette dental plans feature no deductible, no annual maximum, and no waiting periods.
- Every member gets a personalized dental care plan that promotes long-term dental health.
