What will happen if I’ve already paid for the orthodontia care in full, including services that have not been received yet?
Because PCC did not select the orthodontia provisions for dental coverage, you would be required to begin paying at the UCR (usual and customary) rate throughout the remaining time in treatment. OEBB tells HR/Benefits that as long as they are still in treatment, the new fees would apply even if they paid their Orthodontia co-pay in full. The co-pay amount paid will be credited to the pro-rated amount. If the patient chooses not to continue orthodontic treatment with WDG, any credit for treatment remaining would be refunded.
