GEHA Code of Ethical Business Conduct
As part of our GEHA Compliance Program, all contracted entities that perform administrative or health care services must review the GEHA Code of Ethical Business Conduct. This review is mandatory and must be completed when the partnership with GEHA starts during the initial application process — and annually independently thereafter. Please visit our website at connectiondental.com and select Resource Center. Under Resource Links, select GEHA Code Of Ethical Business Conduct and read the documents. No other action is needed. If you have any questions regarding this request, contact GEHA Connection Dental Network at 800.505.8880, option 4. We appreciate your participation in the GEHA Connection Dental Network.
Dominion National has contracted with AmeriHealth
We are pleased to announce Dominion National has contracted with AmeriHealth Insurance Company of New Jersey to administer embedded comprehensive dental plans for its new Medicare Advantage suite of products.
As a participating GEHA Connection Dental Network provider, you are receiving this notice because your office is contracted to see members of AmeriHealth Medicare Advantage plans. Claims will be processed according to your GEHA Connection Dental fee schedule.
The network partnership is effective as of January 1, 2024, and is a strategic step in ensuring AmeriHealth’s Medicare Advantage membership has wide access to quality participating dental providers in New Jersey and the surrounding areas.
The new Medicare Advantage dental PPO plans offer comprehensive benefits with no deductibles or waiting periods. Diagnostic and preventive services are covered in full by the plan, with select basic restorative, endodontic, periodontic services offering 80% coverage. The plan also offers coverage for major services, such as dentures, implants and oral surgery at the 60% coinsurance level. Depending on the Medicare Advantage plan in which the member is enrolled, non-preventive annual maximums range from $1,000 to $2,000.
Members will present their AmeriHealth Medicare Advantage medical card in the office. Your office will use the 10-digit AmeriHealth ID number to verify eligibility and benefits and file claims. Claims can be submitted either by mail or electronically by using the following information:
Claims can be sent to:
P.O. Box 211424
