How is the primary dental plan determined between FEDVIP and dental insurance other than FEHB?
If you have FEDVIP coverage and additional coverage through your spouse, FEDVIP is primary for you and your spouse’s coverage is secondary. Your spouse’s coverage is primary for him or her and your FEDVIP coverage is secondary. If you have dependent children, usually the plan of the parent with the earliest date of birth (month and day only) pays first for the children. If you are the policy holder for both FEDVIP and a commercial carrier, the plan which has been in effect the longest would be primary.
