Cost management
We provide more options for payment than any other carrier. In addition to variable maximums and procedure frequencies, we provide cost-saving options such as:
- The Alberta Blue Cross Dental Schedule®, which helps maintain affordable dental benefits by listing maximum amounts allowed for various dental services. This provides a consistent basis for payment of dental claims while ensuring good oral health, and
- Alberta Blue Cross® Usual and Customary dental fees. Our Alberta Blue Cross® U&C dental fees currently align with the fees contained in the ADA&C provincial fee guide.
Quality services
Our specialized customer service professionals are ready and able to answer your employees' benefit questions. Dedicated phone lines give your plan administrator access to benefits experts for plan administration inquiries.
Electronic claims submission
Today the majority of dental claims are submitted electronically to Alberta Blue Cross® from dental offices—in essence providing direct billing for dental claims.
This means greater convenience for your plan members as they do not have to pay the entire cost up front or be faced with an unexpected expense.
