    It can be challenging to find quality, affordable dental plans for seniors. Today I'm reviewing some of the top Medicare dental plan options for 2020, including dental/vision/hearing plans, dental discount plans, free Medicare Advantage dental benefits and stand alone dental PPO Plans.

    Funny how Medicare doesn't cover the major needs of people over 65- Dental, Vision and Hearing- the first to wear out. I turned 65 yesterday and I purchased two dental plans. One pays $1,500 annually and the other $3,000. You have to wait one year before they will pay for anything and the combined $4,500 won't cover decent dentures or implants. Seniors need to demand Congress cover more dental needs.

      Unless you have a million to bribe congress you aren't getting squat. and if you do have a million who needs dental insurance. My doctor gave me a back brace that I could have bought at Walmart for $30 and I got a statement from Medicaid it costs $1200. I can't get an infected tooth pulled but they'll pay $1200 for a brace worth $30. Don't dentists ever bribe these congressmen to get a dental bill passed. Or sense extractions are hard work they would rather just take the gravy jobs like x-rays and cleaning.

      Thank you for posting your comment about Medicare and dental coverage
      for seniors. I'm scheduled for a couple of tooth extractions and possible
      dental implants. I'm retired and on a fixed SS Income. I've searched the
      internet looking for information on Medicare supplemental plans and dental
      insurance policies. I found it to be a very confusing maze of information
      with no premium plans to help seniors or anyone get coverage for dental
      implants. Medicare and Medicaid don't cover them because they are
      still officially classified as cosmetic surgery after being a state of the art
      dental procedure for over 30 years. I know it's a long shot but I did write
      to my local congressman about this issue. At the moment it looks like
      my only option for dental implants is to seek out Dental Colleges
      who take on volunteer patients for training interns in these procedures.

      Sanders insisted in a tweet Saturday that his proposal to expand Medicare to cover dental, hearing and vision must be included in a budget reconciliation package that is likely to come in well below the $3.5 trillion price tag Democratic leaders initially envisioned.
      But Manchin on Monday threw cold water on Sanders's push to expand Medicare, warning the program faces insolvency in 2026.

    I got my teeth fixed before I retired, that was part of my plan, anything down the road that I need will be cash and minimal charge because I am not going to have any expensive treatments done. I don't do cleaning, which I should, but... I simply can not stand it, it will give me a heart attack just to get ready, so I dont do that anymore. I try to eat well, and take care of myself, and that is the best I can afford.

  • @alansach8437
    @alansach8437 2 года назад +19

    Every dental plan I've found costs more than I am likely to use in a year. Normally I have one or two cleanings a year and that's it. They are about 70.00 each. Every three or four years I need a filling, 125.00. The biggie is a crown. That was $1,000.00. But I've had two of those in my life. Cheaper to just self insure. Put that premium money in an account every month. Medicare should really cover dental. Good teeth are vital to good health. Vote in November for candidates who support expanding original Medicare to cover dental, vision and hearing.

    My new 2024 Cigna Top Tier HMO Plan has "No Waiting Period", covers $20k a year for prosthetics, Ortho's, $0 in co-pays for extractions, x-rays, etc. & the best, it cost me NOTHING!
    Plus, I get vision & hearing.
    I told Cigna that I needed teeth now! I always put off Advantage Plans because of waiting periods & low $1k coverage. I also get back $175 a month on my SSI/DI monthly check.
    Apparently this is Cigna's best plan.

      I bought an advantage PPO plan because I could get a PCP internist and a dental plan with $5000 a year in major services after a one year waiting period. I feel it was worth it. I get extra help for prescriptions and have paid less than $15 out of pocket for any scripts. I've been very happy with the specialists I've seen and the copays have been 10/40. I'm not complaining.

      I have traveled all over the world on business and pleasure, I've been to more than 75 nations. I know all about the issues with National Health Care and they are abundant. But, you can have a better mix of public and private health care than we have. I have a PhD in engineering and and wife is college educated as well, we're both getting ready for retirement. Trying to navigate through all Supplemental/Part D options is maddening, there has to be a simpler way than this. We need a group of average citizens to come up with a better system, our government had the chance and they dropped the ball.

      @@pimpompoom93726 Indeed. Here I go with a rant, so please forgive it.
      I'm one of those people who you could say has won the genetic lottery. I've reached full retirement age having suffered none of the infirmities my friends and colleagues are now experiencing. I suspect it's genetic because both my parents are in their 90's and they still have their health and minds. I seemingly have not fallen far from their tree as I am much the same.
      So where am I going with this? It's only to say that my experience with the American health care industry has been very few and far between. I had no idea about the industry until I started researching Medicare, etc.. Here is my layman's conclusion.
      It's a contrived system all right. An overly elaborate Rube Goldberg machine designed to one end, moving money from your pockets and into the pockets of the service(s) providers. It's a vast shell game meant to confuse the consumer as it does this financial sleight of hand.
      It's the end result of a system designed by the dictates of Capitalistic dogma; one that masquerades as providing legitimate health care support all the while aiming to maximize profits to the industry and its shareholders, and to do so regardless of the expense to, the health and safety of, the consumer.
      It's an obscenity to the consumer, and a gold-mine to the industry.

But she has numerous health issues and lots of prescriptions. I'm 67 and have worked 46 years in high stress industry, it is time to retire. But dealing with all these options, plans and confusion is stressful. As usual, Washington DC gets involved and messes things up even more-true to form. Naturally our good elected representatives in DC have their own health care plan for retirement, they don't deal with this nonsense.

    Wow thanks for the link to the dental comparison site. Like a fool I trusted my licensed medicare agent that screwed me over and sold me a $30 a month dental plan with a $50 sign-up fee and it's not it's good as any of those on that list. I am paying $410 dollars a year for "Essential Care Program" that doesn't even make your list. That didn't tell me anything about what anything would cost. I only find out what it covers when I got a toothache and need a crown. When I called them they said they're the same as dentemax, that's only $140 a year on your list. But I was surprised on how much the different companies very and what you have to pay for a crown. Alliance Health Card savings seems to be the best plan that also covers Chiropractic, hearing, vision and pharmacy $174 a year. Their extractions only $56. Are porcelain Crown it's only $579. And the root canal is only $316. One of the plans was only $530 for a crown but I forgot which one.

    I have been researching Medicare Advantage Dental plans. And what I can see they are usually worthless. They say you can see any dentist you want, but when you read the small print it says the dentist has to accept Medicare patients. That's the hard part I have found trying to find a dentist that works with Medicare patients.

    Thank you so much for all the help you can let us know. I am paying the $53.00 a month for the advantage plan. My previous dentist didn’t tooked care of one tooth that was bothering no me she told me a good clean will take care of that. The pain came and go and COVID-19 didn’t helped. 2021 came I decided to get a new dentist and he also didn’t find a cavity on February and the pain came and went. I insisted that it was painful and it drag until July 21, 2021. I had to paid $278.00 for the root canal, in 3 weeks I have to come out with $453.00 for the crown then there is a charge of $101.00 more for something else. I worked for 38 years paying taxes and all other payments as my citizens duty. I don’t understand why is this so expensive. I paid less for a crown while I was working making more money also paying more toward my insurance but know retired I make less, how can I support myself if I have to come out with that much money for something that I desperately need. Please help if you can. Thank you. 😳😖😡😱😡

    I enrolled in a Dental/Vision/Hearing combo plan when I first took Medicare. In fact, the one link (in the description) provided to a combo plan is the provider I actually signed up for. It now pays 80% after 3 years. The only real negative with this plan is it does not have a negotiated contract with the dental provider - what Medicare calls "Assignment". With Medicare, each medical procedure is assigned a set covered amount and Medicare will accept nothing higher. The providers know this and will accept that amount and nothing more. The Dental provider is not bound by a covered amount and will submit a higher amount. The combo plan will pay the lower amount at 80%, I pay the 20% PLUS any additional amount the provider submitted. For example: the Dental provider submits $150 for a procedure to the combo plan. The plan says that only $100 is covered so it pays 80% (or $80). I pay 20% (or $20) PLUS the remaining amount submitted of $50 ($150 - $100 = $50). I have to pay $70. The combo plan pays $80, i pay $70 so the Dental provider gets the full amount it submitted. What prevents the Dental provider from submitting $200 or $500 for this procedure?

I just had 2 cap and root cancals and the bill was $3000, it paid $800. Which helps . It will renew at the end of the year and you have a $1000 again. I pay $33 a month for it. Well if you add up $33 times 12 it's less than the 800 so I came out a little ahead. I'm gonna see if I can up at to Maybe 1500 or 2000 and see what that cost.

      It s ok fred. Doctors and dentists have really learned how to charge nowadays.. So I welcome any help that I can to reduce the bilsl because it's not going to get any cheaper with them they don't really care. I actually think it's kind of shameful how when you go to a hospital everybody in the hospital from the time you visit the receptionist to the time you leave they all send you a separate bill and when I had an operation for a broken leg the rental for the room was $45000 the operating room for one hour we really didn't spend 15 minutes the doctor said in it but they charge a minimum of 1 hour. I mean these are prices that the average person cant afford so you have to figure out ways to kind of reduce them and that's what I'm trying to do. I had insurance but I still end up paying $23000. The bill was close to a 10l0, 000 Ridiculous with the everybody putting their bills in and everybody that was in the operating room billing. They're just kind of went crazy in the way they charge but it's not ever going change and there's nobody in government that's goingb to do anything so I'm trying to do the best that I can and redo things as much as I can to save a little. The way I look at the dental bill it wasn't $3000, I got $800 off when I went to pay it . When I was a kid dentist used to be a pretty cheap but they've learned how to charge like doctors and they're following doctors charged for everything.. My mom and dad would send us to the dentist and he wrote A bicycle to work. And he did everything , he would answer the phone working on me and tell you you have to wait a few minutes why he answered the phone. Sometimes his young daughter would come in and work in the office and answer the phone Nowadays .its charged charge charge and we dont care what it cost you.

    Stephanie, my husband and I have Medicare and for our supplement, we have TriCare For Life which is thru his military service. We see a lot of medicare supplement commercials and get tired of them being done with high payed celebrities. Most people don't realize, sadly, that most seniors are very gullible and with a big known celebrity promoting them are deceived thinking they have to have the coverage when they don't. Anyway, my question is why Medicare Helpline and other supplements are allowed to advertisement their companies will allow you to have your medicare premium put back into your social security check. That is a big false advertisement and why Medicare and the government allows those commercials?

    Everyone, pls do the math before you give money to any insurance plan. The "best" plan that I could find would only pay $1500 per year. That's right. They say they will pay 100% or this procedure or 50% of another, but when you see the cost of the procedures you see that you will need more than $1500/year to cover the cost. Then add up what you are paying for your plan and the deductibles and you will see that if you need any type of care at all that you are not saving any money at all but you are lining the pockets of these insurance vultures.
