About Golden Rule Dental Primary Plan for Tennessee Medicare Beneficiaries

Golden Rule Dental Primary Plan, by Golden Rule, is a Dental PPO (Preferred Provider Organization or Participating Provider Organization) insurance plan for Tennessee seniors. It's the most common type of dental insurance, and they almost always require you to pay a deductible.

Unlike an HMO, a dental PPO allows you to use a dentist outside of the network. However, when you use a network dentist you pay reduced rates. When you use a network dentist, you will typically pay a certain percentage (e.g. 20%) of the reduced rate (co-payment), and the insurance company pays the remainder (e.g. 80%).

Be sure to compare Golden Rule Dental Primary Plan with other PPO dental insurance in Tennessee before you choose.

The monthly premium with the Golden Rule Dental Primary Plan plan starts at about $18.43. This is an estimated rate for a 65 year old woman living in Tennessee that does not use tobacco. This is an insurance product, so you'll need to get a quote to get the exact cost for your situation.
