Principal Financial Group is offering its dental insurance members the flexibility to seek an opinion from two different dentists before choosing dental procedures.
The new Second Opinion program gives employees a chance to compare costs and better understand the available treatment options, according to the company.
Members seeking another opinion present a voucher to the dentist during the second opinion visit; members can seek second opinions on an unlimited basis, often at no additional cost.
The company's website includes a cost estimator to calculate dental costs in a given ZIP code and a database of network providers who offer discounted charges and fees.
