About US

AADC was founded in 1979 with the belief that an experienced dental benefits consultant can provide valuable insight and input regarding provider network issues, dental claim policy and standards of care, dental plan coverage and utilization management. AADC's goal is to connect dentists and others involved in dental benefits consulting and administration, to identify and promote best practices and to advance education and promote a common base of knowledge for consistent, evidence-based plan and claims evaluations.

AADC strives to create vehicles for communication among its members and between members and the association. It also hopes to raise awareness within the insurance industry of the value of dental benefits consultants and the range of services that can be provided and enhanced through experienced benefits consulting. By encouraging certification and ongoing professional development, AADC promotes qualifications which serve the best interests of patients, plans, policy holders and the dental profession. Most importantly, AADC is committed to promoting competency and up-to-date knowledge among dental benefits consultants. Certified Dental Consultants are recognized as leaders in their field.

VISION STATEMENT

Dedicated to serving patients, the public, purchasers of health benefits and the profession of dentistry.


Does your company have a Dental Consultant?

Yes, you heard me correctly - dental plans need dentists just as patients do. Dental plans experience aches and pains, require remedies, and need ongoing maintenance too. If you don't have a knowledgeable and experienced dental consultant associated with your plan, it is likely to be out of date regarding professional and plan management perspectives.

There was a time when dental consultants to benefit plans were primarily used to review designated claims for dental necessity, appropriateness, and proper reimbursement. While this activity is still important in light of the recent technological explosion of new treatments and the continued escalation of dental fees, the knowledge and skill sets of a seasoned and qualified dental consultant now have broadened in response to professional, industry, and marketplace changes. An experienced consultant can provide valuable insight and input regarding provider network issues, dental claim policy and standards of care, dental plan coverage, and utilization management. A closer review of these areas will illustrate some of the more evident opportunities for dental plan improvement that a dental consultant can provide. Read More »
