Mutual of Omaha boasts a dental insurance plan with no surprises. With this dental insurance plan, you know what your out-of-pocket costs will be from the beginning.
Mutual of Omaha offers two plan options:
The Preferred plan offers slightly more coverage, with a calendar year benefit of $1,500, while the protection plan offers a calendar year benefit of $1,000. For both plans, preventive services – two cleanings per year and X-rays – are 100% covered.
