How to Gain a Competitive Benefits Advantage

Choosing the right dental plan can make a big difference for your employees and your benefits cost management strategies. CarePlus Dental Plans stand out because we combine high-value benefits, predictable costs, and a trusted partnership with Dental Associates. Here is why more than 260 groups and 45,000 members across Wisconsin rely on CarePlus in their plan design.

A Proven, Long-Term Partner

CarePlus has been serving employers for more than 40 years, and many groups have partnered with us for a decade or longer. Our 94 percent retention rate shows that once groups join CarePlus, they stay because of the service, quality, and savings they experience.

An Integrated Model That Puts Patients First

With CarePlus, members receive coordinated care through Dental Associates. This integrated approach creates a smoother, higher-quality experience because:

• There is no confusion about coverage
• Communication between insurance and dental providers is seamless
• Patients receive comprehensive care, including general dentistry, pediatrics, orthodontics, oral surgery, and more
• Every group plan includes evidence-based preventive benefits at no added cost

Employers appreciate the simplicity, and employees appreciate the exceptional, local customer service.

Lower Out-of-Pocket Costs for Employees

CarePlus benefits are designed to reduce uncertainty and keep dental care affordable. Compared to typical competitor plans that cover only 50 percent of many major procedures, CarePlus covers 90 percent. That means members typically pay only 10 percent out of pocket, delivering exceptional employee value.

Stronger Dental Benefits Than the Competition

CarePlus plans consistently outperform typical competitor plans with:

• Higher annual maximums ($3,000 vs. $2,000)
• Higher orthodontic maximums ($2,500 vs. $1,000)
• No deductible
• Better coverage for basic, major, oral surgery, perio, and implant services

Employees receive more coverage and fewer hurdles, and you can rest assured that your teams are getting high-quality care that will reduce time missed for emergent care.

Competitive Rates Help Benefits Cost Management

CarePlus rates are generally 10 to 15 percent lower than competing dental plans. For employers, this can mean meaningful annual savings and help you showcase to your leadership team that your cost management strategies are working.

Examples of estimated annual savings:

• 200-member group: $8,900 to $13,350
• 500-member group: $22,400 to $33,600
• 2,000-member group: $72,800 to $109,200
• 6,000-member group: $320,000 to $480,000

These savings allow organizations to reinvest in their employees without sacrificing benefits quality.

Real Member Feedback That Shows Results

Members frequently share positive experiences about the quality of care, the speed of service, and the compassion of their dental providers. From orthodontic success stories to same-day issue resolution, these reviews reinforce the value of having integrated insurance and care under one trusted system.
