Common Questions About Dental and Vision Administration

Billing

How can I receive my billing statements electronically?

The primary portal administrator would have selected paperless billing when they completed the eServices Agreement. If you’d like to set that up now, please contact us for assistance.

I signed up for electronic billing statements, or eBill. When will I receive my bill?

We’ll email you when your bill is ready. You can access your bill and up to 12 months history by logging in to the employer portal.

I receive a paper bill. When can I expect it to arrive?

We generate a paper bill a few days after we receive your payment for the previous month's bill.

I need help understanding my bill.

Please refer to the Sample Billing Statement section in the Administration Guide for Dental and Vision Benefits or contact us.

Can I pay my dental, vision and life and disability bills together?

Dental and vision payments are processed in a separate system and require a payment separate from your life or disability bill. If you pay with checks, please send them to the correct lockboxes, which are listed on each bill. 

Member Questions

When will my employees receive their ID cards?

If you elected paper cards, we’ll mail them after your plan installation is complete. Depending on how your plan is structured, cards will typically arrive at your location or members' home addresses within five to seven business days.

If you elected electronic ID cards only or your plan does not include paper cards, members can log in to their member account to download a copy or contact us for assistance. 

One of my employees wants me to help with a claim. Can I do that?

Yes, if the member authorizes us to release their claim information to you. Have the member complete and send us the Authorization to Release Health-Related Information form. You can download the authorization from the Forms page.

Where can I find enrollment or claim forms?

Visit the Forms page on our website.

Where can my employees go for help with finding a provider, setting up their account or claims questions?

Refer your employees to the Dental and Vision Member Services page on our website. They’ll find resources there to access care and manage their benefits.
