We always recommend calling your dentist ultimately
Certificate of Credible Coverage? You don't
need this particular document to submit to us at the time of
your application. However, we will need it once you get
approved. This certificate proves you had prior coverage that
has not lapsed more than 63 days. This allows your pre-existing
conditions to be covered. If you did not have prior coverage
within 63 days of your approval date with us than you may be
subject to a waiting period for your pre-existing medical
condition.
Good old fashion insurance facts?
DentalInsuranceUtah.net are all from the same source. That source
being BenefitsManager,Inc. BenefitsManager,Inc. is a licensed independent
dental insurance source for Utah.
An agent or agency is a required license designation by Utah.
This name will shortly be changed to "Producer". A insurance agent
or agency IS NOT the same thing as a reality agent. When you buy a
home you pay a one time commission fee. When you buy a insurance
policy, an agent is paid a servicing fee. This is not the same
cost when you go about selling or buying your home where you loose
money in commission points. Agents or agency fees do not increase
the cost of your policy. This is part of the "administration fees"
that health insurance carriers budget for in their "general fund" to better service people going
through the application process. This has been the most efficient and cost
effective system used currently to manage the explanation and
ongoing support for health insurance policies. Health insurance
carriers cannot afford to hire the payroll personnel to service you
in house. It is in your best interest to deal with a neutral field
underwriting source such as us. Mike Oliphant is a Health
Underwriter through National Association of Health Underwriters. This
means his experience as a field underwriter benefits you with his
continued education requirements with approval and servicing issues.
A field underwriter is under high demand in Utah as Mike will
confirm.
Your effective date is usually the 1st of the month following
your application date. Carriers normally will only issue the 1st day of the
month following your application. Your submission deadline to
qualify for the first is no latter than the 25th of the month.
DO NOT CANCEL CURRENT COVERAGE UNTIL YOU RECIEVE
WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE NEW CARRIER
