Based upon many years of experience marketing and administering Medical and Dental Benefit Plans, we set out to develop an affordable dental benefit plan that really WORKS. Cost-benefit analysis shows this plan vs. conventional dental insurance, to be cost-effective due to low membership cost and significant professional fee reductions.
This is a reduced-rate dental benefit plan with hundreds of participating dental offices located throughout the NYC Metro area. The plan is designed to provide access to quality dental services for individuals, families, seniors, and groups who seek affordable dental care and a wide selection of providers, including high profile specialists and dental faculty members.
In some important ways, this plan works on the model of a Cooperative. In exchange for membership in NYDN, our Participating Dentists offer a comprehensive and affordable schedule of professional fees and services, as shown on our website. Membership cost is modest, and the plan is designed to return your membership fee in the form of SAVINGS on dental services. This is our minimum goal for all members, old and new.This is not insurance. It is a reduced-rate dental plan, and Yes it does work. There are no exclusions, deductibles or claim forms.
We have posted comprehensive schedules of professional fees and services for each of (7) dental specialties, showing member savings. We want our members and site visitors to know, in advance, how much dental services cost in the New York City Metro area. As a public service, we publish and update information about a wide variety of dental services including root canal, crowns, braces, implants, and dentures. Over a period of time, NYDN has had a very high rate of member retention. Why do our members continue year after year? Our members tell us, very simply, they continue because NYDN saves them money and permits them to secure dental care, when needed. HOW can we demonstrate to you that this plan works? We want you to find out for yourself if this plan works well for you. We now offer first time members a SIX MONTH trial period at cost of $35.00. All services become available right away. We will refund your $35.00 if, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with how the plan works. As a new member, if you need emergency Root Canal treatment, or a Crown, or Braces, or Dentures, all these services will be covered. If you want a long overdue Oral Exam and Cleaning, or a postponed Cosmetic Dental procedure, no problem, these services will also be available at low network rates. NYDN has hundreds of Participating Dental offices throughout the NYC Metro area, and this number is growing. If you don’t find your dentist listed among our participating dental offices, we will be glad to consider his or her application for membership. Dental plans, always in demand, have consistently been the weak link in benefit planning. The issues have always been the same: Relatively high cost, followed by Deductibles, Co-pays, Exclusions, Waiting Periods, and a Dollar Limit on annual benefits. This Dental Plan is open to Individuals, Seniors 60+ and Groups, large and small. There are NO Deductibles, Exclusions, Co-pays, Waiting Periods, Benefit Limits, or claim forms. At no risk, you will be able to join this plan and determine if NYDN works for you. Beyond the SIX MONTH trial period, if you want to continue as a member, the regular membership fee is very affordable at:|
