Re: Dental Insurance? Confused??!

Hi there Folks,

i have just forked out £350 on the NHS for some work recently and am now looking at a dental plan. My nhs dentist uses HSA and currently they offer a free £40 electric tooth brush and £20 back if through Quidco.

However my friend recommended Denplan as there is no hassle to claim afterwards, ie you dont pay then re-claim for the bill.

Has anyone had any dealings with either, I have checked the forum but too many posts! Any thoughts most appreciated, need to decide!!

I made a claim thru HSA in February and I am still waiting for an outcome. They take about a month to reply each time and then just ask for further info!

It looks like I will have to complain thru the ombudsman as my initial complaint about the delays was 2 months ago!

im fairly sure they let you claim even if the problem is already there - although if you have actually paid for the work im not too sure - why not send them an email?

I use Denplan and I like it because I know exactly how much it going to be taken each month, and if I need any emergency treatment, I'm automatically covered. Dentists with Denplan are also obliged to give you any preventative information as well.
