Tricare chooses Metlife not United Concordia for dental coverage

The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) upheld a decision to award a $3.1 billion Tricare dental

plan contract to a different insurer, its first change in 15 years. Tricare Management Activity agency at the

U.S. Department of Defense decided to give New York, N.Y.-based Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. a $3.1

billion dental plan contract rather than United Concordia Cos., based in Harrisburg, Pa. Tricare managers de-

cided that the MetLife provider network suited the military insurance program better than United Concordia’s

network, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette reported. United Concordia, a division of Pittsburgh, Pa.-based High-

mark, was the Tricare dental program provider for 15 years.

Effective May 1, 2012, MetLife will become the dental carrier for the TDP. MetLife will begin providing den-

tal coverage to over 2 million family members of uniformed service active duty personnel, members of the

Selected Reserve and Individual Ready Reserve, their eligible family members, and Survivors.

Beneficiaries will have access to MetLife's network with over 161,000 dentist access points, and this number

continues to grow. Additional information about the contract is available at www.tricare.mil/TDPcontract and

benefit updates are available at www.tricare.mil.

PLEASE NOTE that the change to MetLife is for the TDP program only. The Active Duty Dental Program

will still be administered by United Concordia®. Changes to the TDP will include enhanced dental coverage

at a lower premium share than before. MetLife will distribute program information, provider network details

beginning in first quarter 2012. Highlights to the benefits and enhancements are listed below:

· Coverage of posterior resin (tooth colored/white) fillings

· Increase in the annual maximum to $1,300 per enrollee (formerly this was $1,200

· Increase in the lifetime orthodontic maximum to $1,750

· $1,200 per year for services related to dental treatment due to an accident as de-

fined in the TDP handbook

· No cost shares for scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) for diabetics

· Coverage of an additional (3rd) cleaning for women during pregnancy

· Expansion of the survivor benefits to surviving spouse and child(ren)

If you would like to check if your dentist is already part of the MetLife network,

please click Find a Dentist on the right and search for a DPPO provider. If the den-

tist is not a member, dentists can easily request an application on our website for

dentists, http://www.metdental.com/.

Effective May 1, 2012 MetLife will become the dental carrier for the Tricare Dental Plan.

MetLife and United Concordia, the current TDP contractor, are working together to complete the contract

transition activities for MetLife’s start on May 1, 2012. TDP claims with a date of service prior to May 1,

2012 will continue to be processed by United Concordia until April 30, 2013. All TDP claims with a date of

service on or after May 1, 2012 will be submitted to MetLife. Please make note of these important dates to

ensure timely processing of your TDP claims. The new TDP contract that MetLife will be administering is

not to be confused with the separate TRICARE dental contract that covers eligible uniformed service mem-

bers. The Active Duty Dental Program (ADDP) will continue to be administered by United Concordia. Met-

Life is looking forward to the opportunity to provide quality dental coverage and oral health educational pro-

grams to the more than 2 million TDP beneficiaries, which include the family members of all active duty uni-

for

Dependent Children of Active, Retired and Deceased Soldiers

GENERAL INFORMATION

Army Emergency Relief (AER) is a private non-profit organization with the primary mission of providing financial assis-tance to Soldiers and their dependents in time of valid emergency need. The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program was established in 1976 as a secondary mission to help Army families with undergraduate college expenses for their dependent children.

SCHOLARSHIP DETAILS

• The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program offers scholarships based on financial need as evidenced by information submitted on the FAFSA. The MG James Ursano Program also offers scholarship funds for academic excellence and leadership/achievement.

• The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program is not an entitlement and applications are not automatically approved.

• The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program will not be awarded to any student for more than four academic years, for second undergraduate degrees, or for graduate degree programs.

• The scholarship funds are mailed directly to the school and are split evenly between the fall and spring semesters, terms or quarters. The funds may be used for tuition, fees, books, supplies, and school room and board (either on or off campus).

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

• Student must be enrolled full time as an undergraduate student for the entire academic year at a school accredited by the U.S. Department of Education. (Because financial need is already met, students attending Service Academies are not eligible.)

• Student must be a dependent of a Soldier on federal active duty, of a retired Soldier, or of a deceased active or de-ceased retired Soldier

o To be a dependent, the student must:

Be under the age of 23 (Eligibility ends at the end of the semester/term in which the student reaches their 23rd birthday. Example – turning 23 in December would mean the scholarship would be awarded for fall term ONLY.)

Not be a member of the National Guard, Reserves, or other active duty military branch

Volunteer Opportunities

Habitat For Humanity is having a fundraiser this coming week (beginning

Saturday 3/31/12) and they are having a hard time finding volunteers. They typi-

cally target high school students/youth to help out only because it is an easy

fundraiser for them to help with, but accompanied by an adult. Youth is not nec-

essary but adult volunteers are also welcome. It is a stick house fundraiser held

at the Salmon Run Mall. We have 3 hour shifts each day for a week, 2 to 3 peo-

ple per shift needed. We sell popsicle sticks for $1 and they are hot glued to a 5'

house frame and the goal is to completely cover the house frame and raise

money for Habitat to build a "real" home here in our community. If you are in-

terested in helping out, please contact Pam Rajner 486-7321.
