Dental Plans - From Company or Otherwise

From former employees of HP and HPE. 

Join the HPAA's Benefits Forum Covers topics such as COBRA and retiree health benefits, annual enrollment, and transition to Medicare.

If you are in the process of leaving HP or HPE, there are dental coverage items in the ASAP Checklist -- what to do before losing access to internal systems.

The problem with dental insurance is that it isn't really insurance -- i.e. catastrophe protection. It is a maintenance-and-repair service contract that depends very much on the amount of maintenance that the customer performs themselves. Insurers price the plans low to get new customers, but restrict the amount of coverage available for the first few years after you join -- otherwise people join and then leave after their major work has been covered <smile>
