New Dental Plan

In response to numerous requests by NOWCC enrollees to offer dental coverage in more locations across the country, we are pleased to announce that, effective September 1, 2008, NOWCC  will be changing our voluntary dental benefits from CIGNA to Assurant.  With 85,000 dentists nationwide participating in Assurant’s “Dental Health Alliance” Network (DHA), we believe the dental program has been dramatically improved. 

In addition to the new dental coverage with Assurant, enrollees will have a vision discount plan as part of the Assurant coverage through Vision Services Plan (VSP).  This vision plan includes discounts on exams and the purchase of eyeglasses, frames etc.  The average discount is 20%. 

Please look for the email you will be receiving from NOWCC which will explain in more detail the new coverage.  Please read the email carefully as there are deadlines involved with the new coverage.
