Join AADC

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.
