UHC Standard and High plan

We would like to inform you regarding a new arrangement between GEHA and UnitedHealthcare (UHC) that may bring more patients to your practice. Effective 1/1/2024, GEHA started offering medical plans that includes dental coverage. GEHA’s FEHB medical members can select a Medicare Advantage Standard or High plan that is administered by UHC.

Through your provider agreement with the GEHA Connection Dental Network, you may be an in-network provider for these Medicare Advantage plan members. Claims will be processed for reimbursement in accordance to your assigned GEHA Connection Dental Network fee schedule.

For questions about access, benefits, and eligibility, please contact 877.842.3210

• Aetna
• Dominion National
• Dental Network of America (DNOA)
• Commonwealth Care Alliance of Rhode Island
