If someone was enrolled in CONNECTION Dental Plus and wanted to switch to your new FEDVIP plan, will that prior enrollment count toward the 24-month orthodontic waiting period of the new plan?
Unfortunately, time covered by CONNECTION Dental Plus will not count toward the orthodontic waiting period for GEHA Connection Dental Federal. These are separate programs and eligibility will not transfer from one to another. Q: You stated that orthodontic coverage for children ends at age 19. Is there any allowance for children to continue until age 22 if they are enrolled in college, as happens with the regular health plans? A: No. Orthodontia coverage ends when a child turns age 19. However, dental coverage for other services continues for dependent children up to age 22, just as with the health plan.
