Therefore, you are encouraged to discuss availability of the scheduled services with your Plan Dentist. Charges for procedures not listed on the Co-payment Schedule that are performed by your Plan Dentist are not covered under the Secure Choice Plan.

Instead, the following reductions off the Plan Specialist's normal retail charges apply to all services received from a Plan Specialist. A 15% reduction applies if the Plan Specialist is an endodontist. A 25% reduction applies if the Plan Specialist is any other type of specialist, including but not limited to an orthodontist. You are responsible for paying the entire reduced charge at the time the service is received, or in accordance with the Plan Specialist's billing procedures.
