All State Policy Disclosures, Exclusions, Limitations, and Reductions

4You may pay more for out-of-network charges if the dentist’s charges exceed the amount Cigna reimburses for billed services. Covered expenses for Non-Participating Providers (Out-of-Network) are based on the Contracted Fee which may be less than Actual Billed Charges. Non-Participating Providers can bill you for amounts exceeding covered expenses (often called Balance Billing). Balance Billing is when a Non-Participating Provider bills you for the difference between the charges for a service, and what Cigna will pay for that service after coinsurance and Contracted Fee have been applied. The Contracted Fee is the most Cigna will pay a dentist for a covered service or procedure for out-of-network dental care that is based on a basic Cigna DPPO Advantage fee schedule within a specified area. For Massachusetts and Alaska customers: You pay the difference between the provider’s Actual Billed Charges and the Maximum Reimbursable Charge. For Maryland customers, please refer to the Summary of Benefits [PDF] for Frequency/Limitation information. For AR, MN, NM, NV and VT customers, coverage is provided for Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ) services, non-surgical, at 50% in-network and out-of-network (plan deductible applies).
