Dental SCOB (special coordination of benefits) co-pay waiver when using a SIDS dentist

Oct 1, 2009 2:45 PM

As you are aware, members and their spouses/domestic partners who are also UFT members receive certain enhanced benefits under each other’s coverage (SCOB). Members who are eligible for the SCOB benefits and use a participating dentist (SIDS) will not be charged co-pays that are listed on our dental schedule. The Fund will pay the dentist for the applicable co-pays. However, payments for upgraded or non-covered services will still be the responsibility of the member.
