Through its affiliate company DialCare, DialCare Teledentistry will offer 24/7 access to licensed dentists via phone or video consultation.
Careington International Corp announced the launch of a teledentistry program through its affiliate company DialCare, offering 24/7 access to licensed dentists nationwide via phone or video consultation.
Careington, which has over 40 years of dental benefits expertise, owns and operates some of the largest discount and PPO dental networks in the United States. Through its affiliated, nationally licensed TPA, Careington also provides its partners and clients with administrative services, including claims processing and billing administration of fully insured and self-insured dental plans.
DialCare has reportedly been offering telemedicine through its Physician Access and Mental Wellness programs for years.
With DialCare Teledentistry, members can virtually consult with dentists who assist with oral health problems, assess oral sores, lesions, swelling or infections, advise on orthodontic needs, broken, chipped, sensitive, or misaligned teeth, and gum swelling and bleeding, and provide second opinions and treatment guidance.
According to Careington, DialCare Teledentistry offers diagnostic and preventative services that help reduce dental costs by detecting conditions early and recommending treatment that can help members avoid major dental work.
DialCare Teledentistry is available to organizations and individual consumers. The teledentistry program is now included in the plan offerings on Careington’s website.
