There’s an App That Will Make You Smile

Convenient dental help is just a download away. The County’s dental insurance provider has a smartphone application with useful oral health information and on-the-go access to your individual plan.

The new dental insurance provider Delta Dental has an app that allows members with DeltaCare USA-California HMO and Delta Dental PPO to have access to their accounts 24/7. Staying on top of your health is easier than ever.

Download the Delta Dental app from the App Store or Google Play. Once you’ve got the app on your mobile device, you can explore features, including:

  • Access to your ID card, which you can display on your device or email to someone directly from the app to show proof of coverage.

  • See an overview of coverage, claims, deductibles and maximums for services.

  • Find a dentist – you can search by address, current location, dentist name or specialty. Once you select someone, you can add your dentist to your contacts and get directions to his or her office.

In addition to the convenient app, you can find even more information on Delta Dental’s full desktop site. You will be able to do all the same things as you can on the app, plus opt for paperless statements, check average dental costs in your area, and read blog posts on various topics including pediatric dentistry, dental anxiety and oral surgery. Plus, there’s a version of the site in Spanish.

Whether you surf over to the site on your desktop or open up the app on your smartphone, you’ll need to login or register. Users will need to enter their name, subscriber ID or Social Security number, date of birth and home ZIP code.
