Understanding Your Dental Plans The Preferred Dentist Program is designed to provide the dental coverage you need with the features you want. Like the freedom to visit the dentist of your choice- in or out of the network. Plan benefits for in-network services are based on the percentage of the negotiated fee -the fee that participating dentists have agreed to accept as payment in full. Plan benefits for out-of-network services are based on the percentage of the Reasonable and Customary (R&C) charges. If you choose adentist who does not participate in the network, your out-of-pocket expenses may be more, since you will be responsible for paying any difference between the dentist's fee and your plan's payment for the approved service.
