EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS

The Contract does not cover any services performed at offices other than Dental Associates’ in Wisconsin.
The Contract provides only supplemental benefits. The Contract will not replace, reduce, eliminate or modify any other coverage, including Medicare.
The Contract will not reimburse you for missed appointment charges.
A member of your family will no longer be covered if that person no longer meets the definition of “family” under the CarePlus Contract.
No credits shall apply under the Contract if your plan is a group dental Contract offered by CarePlus. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Credits shall apply under the Contract with respect to a dental service if (a) you have exhausted your benefits with respect to that dental service under your plan or (b) your plan does not provide any benefits for that dental service (i.e., it is a non-covered service). This exception is only with respect to the difference between the reasonable, usual and customary charge for such dental service and the amount actually covered by your plan for such dental service.
No Credits shall apply under the Contract if your plan is a PPO Contract and makes payments to the Dentists at reduced amounts. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Credits shall apply under this Contract with respect to a dental service if your plan does not provide any benefits for that dental service (i.e., it is a noncovered service). However, such Credits only apply to the extent listed in Exhibit A of the Contract.
