<strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>Flex</strong><br />

Welcome to <strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>Flex</strong>, the fee<br />

for service dental program with a<br />

difference. <strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>Flex</strong> is offered to<br />

you by the University of Virginia and<br />

<strong>United</strong> <strong>Concordia</strong>, a dental insurer with<br />

more than 31 years of experience.<br />

<strong>United</strong> <strong>Concordia</strong> offers a complete<br />

range of dental products and delivery<br />

models through contracted providers to<br />

6.5 million Americans. *<br />

With <strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>Flex</strong>, you are free to<br />

use any licensed dentist you wish, but<br />

the plan’s value and convenience is<br />

maximized when you use a <strong>United</strong><br />

<strong>Concordia</strong> participating dentist.<br />

When you receive care from a<br />

participating dentist, there are no claim<br />

forms to fill out. Participating dentists<br />

accept <strong>United</strong> <strong>Concordia</strong>’s allowance as<br />

payment in full for covered services. You<br />

will pay only the deductible and coinsurance<br />

amounts that are part of your<br />

program design and any amounts<br />

exceeding the annual program maximum.<br />

If you receive care from a nonparticipating<br />

dentist, the dentist can bill<br />

you for the difference between <strong>United</strong><br />

<strong>Concordia</strong>’s allowance and the dentist’s<br />

charge. You may also have to submit<br />

claim forms to united <strong>Concordia</strong> to<br />

receive reimbursement for services<br />

provided by a non-participating provider.<br />
