National Dental Plan Coverage
Beginning on January 1, 2020, Local 804 members will be enrolled in a national dental network through Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Dental benefits through this plan will be improved, as well as affording access to a massive network throughout the U.S. Check with your dentist to make sure they participate in the Dental Blue Complete, PPO.
The Health & Welfare Trustees are working toward expanding this network access to retirees as well, and notices will be sent out as soon as this is confirmed.
