PLAN INfORMATION
This brochure provides a brief description of the benefits, exclusions and other provisions of the Master Group Dental Policy MNL ADEN-POL 0905 or SSL ADEN-POL 0905 issued to Communicating for America, Inc. association, the group policyholder. For complete details, please refer to the Group Dental Insurance Certificate (MNL ADEN-CER.001 0905 or SSL ADEN-CER.001 0905).

GROUP ASSOCIATION Denali Dental is a group association dental plan available to individuals and families. Membership enrollment in Communicating for America, Inc. (CA) is effective upon receipt of association dues, which are added to the plan premium. CA is a nonprofit association headquartered in Fergus Falls, Minn., providing members valued benefits and savings since 1972. ELIGIBILITY Denali Dental is available to applicants aged 18 and older, their spouse and dependent children under the age of 26. The primary insured must be a member of CA and all family members must be residents of the United States in order to be covered. COVERED CHARGES Covered charges must be incurred while the policy is inforce and the person is covered by the policy. To become a covered charge, the dental services must be performed by: a licensed dentist performing dental services within the scope of his license; or a licensed dental hygienist acting under the supervision and direction of a dentist. A covered charge is considered incurred on the following dates: for full and partial dentureson the date the final impression is taken; for fixed bridges, crowns, inlays and onlayson the date the teeth are first prepared; for root canal therapyon the date the pulp chamber is opened; for periodontal surgeryon the date surgery is performed; for all other serviceson the date the service is performed. ALTERNATIVE BENEfIT If we determine that a less expensive alternate procedure, service or course of treatment can be performed in place of the proposed treatment to correct a dental condition and the alternative treatment will produce a professionally satisfactory result, then the maximum we will allow will be the charge for the less expensive treatment. PREDETERMINATION Of BENEfITS Except in an emergency, before you begin treatment that will cost more than the predetermination amount shown on the Certificates schedule of benefits page, your dentist must submit a claim to us describing the treatment necessary and its cost. This estimate is not a guarantee of payment. We will still consider a claim for which you have not obtained prior approval. However, the claims will be subject to reduced benefits based on our determination of reasonable and customary charges, and medically necessary treatment. COORDINATION Of BENEfITS This plan will be coordinated with any other group, blanket or franchise plan under which an individual will receive benefits. WAITING PERIOD TAKEOVER BENEfITS If you were previously covered under a different dental plan with comparable coverage you may be eligible for takeover credit under this plan at an additional cost. If your prior coverage termination date is no more than 30 days prior to the date you are requesting coverage under this plan, you are eligible for a takeover feature whereby the length of time you were covered under your prior plan will be applied to the graded benefit features of this plan. As a result, you will enter the plan at a higher level of benefit for coverage categories that grade up over time. To qualify for this takeover feature you must provide an evidence of coverage letter from your prior carrier which includes the termination date of the prior plan and a summary of the benefits of the prior plan that illustrates prior comparable coverage. The takeover feature is available for a 20% increase to the base rate. All required information and the additional premium must be submitted with your application. DB IN WP 0412
