CORAL SPRINGS, FL -- http://www.uniondental.com/ir -- a Company
that operates and manages a network of dentists throughout the
United States for union members announced today Dr. George Green
spoke to all of the Florida CWA Presidents addressing the issue of
dental benefits. A specific topic on the agenda was the merger of
at&t and Bell South and what will transpire in relation to the
dental benefits offered by the employer. Union officials stated the
new at&t, which continues to provide dental insurance through a
Third Party Administrator (TPA) and dental insurance benefits, will
remain the same and processed as normal through the TPA.
Dr. George D. Green, President and CEO, stated: "Reimbursement
to the doctors was set higher while out of pocket cost increases to
the union membership were kept minimal. The increase on crown units
was held at $40 and for root canals $50 and is thus minimal to the
affected patient. At the same time to the dentist performing a bulk
of work the increase is substantial and will be profit producing
for our dental providers. As such it should help to attract more
dentists to participate as we renew our networks in the nine
formerly Bell South states and seek to attract more providers."
