Dental Coverage*

Good dental care can give you more than just a nice smile. Taking care of your dental health may help your overall health. Research conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services suggests that problems with your teeth and gums could be associated with other health conditions, including diabetes and heart disease.

That’s why MUST provides optional dental coverage to members in addition to medical plans. BlueCare Dental Connection offers educational information and outreach to help you make informed decisions about your dental care. The below information highlights the dental coverage offered by MUST.

*This benefit is available to those participants whose participant group has opted for this coverage and who have individually completed anenrollment form requesting coverage and the premium has been paid.

Vision Coverage*

Regular exams are a simple, noninvasive tool to help identify early signs of serious and chronic health conditions. And because early detection is key for treatment, regular eye examinations play a vital role in a healthy life and in helping you see life to the fullest. All members with medical coverage are provided one annual eye examination as a covered preventive benefit. MUST also provides optional vision hardware coverage to members.

Eye exams play an important role in your overall wellness, and you should get one every year for optimal vision and medical health.

*This benefit is available to those participants whose participant group has opted for this coverage and who have individually completed an enrollment form requesting coverage and the premium has been paid.
