About IHC Apex Dental Plan for Minnesota Medicare Beneficiaries

IHC Apex Dental Plan, by The IHC Group, is a Dental PPO (Preferred Provider Organization or Participating Provider Organization) insurance plan for Minnesota 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 IHC Apex Dental Plan with other PPO dental insurance in Minnesota before you choose.

The monthly premium with the IHC Apex Dental Plan plan starts at about $30.43. This is an estimated rate for a 65 year old woman living in Minnesota 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.
