Does anyone have AmeriPlan, and is it good for dental..?

Question

how do you sign up and use the ameeriplan?
how much discount do you get?

Answer 1

Please do research before signing up for any so-called discount plans.

Keep in mind, they are not regulated by any agency, as are insurance companies, so if they don't deliver on their promises, you're out of luck.

Here on some tips from a consumer guide regarind these "plans"

•Don't rely on e-mail when buying a plan on the Internet. Get an address and phone number for the company. "If they haven't told you enough information, don't buy from them," Blunt warns
•If the company is slow about responding to e-mail, or doesn't respond at all, go elsewhere
•Beware of plans that are matched with other discount plans to entice you to buy more than you really need, like getting a coupon for two boxes of cereal when all you need is one
•Make sure the plan is available in your state
• If you have a complaint about your discount plan, you can't go to insurance regulators. You have to work it out with the dentist's office or the state dental board
• Make sure your dentist has actually agreed to participate in the plan. Deceitful companies will include dentists on the discount list even if they haven't accepted the lower fees. Call ahead
• Check around to see if the "discounted" fee you are getting is really discounted. Contact several dentists' offices and compare discounted and nondiscounted fees for the same procedures
• Don't send bank account information over the Internet.

Ameriplan is good if you ask me. you get 20-80% off all your dental expences. What you do is sign up. you get a packet it tells what % you will save. on your more common stuff teeth cleaning, check up, x-rays, its a higher percent. on crowns, braces, root canal its 20% off. The plan is only 11.95 a month.
you also get Vision care, up to 50% off prescription drugs. and chiropractic discounts. all in all for 12 bucks you get a lot of savings. www.mybenefitsplus.com/40419081 Dont include the ..... Goto providers in my area. it will give you a list use state and zipcode. there are a lot of them/.

I had Ameriplan one time a long time ago. It was awful. No Drs on their plan and no dental coverage.
