When it comes to dental care, the goal is to give members access to a dental provider whenever they need it- especially when there’s an emergency.
That’s why Aetna is pleased to announce their new partnership with TeleDentists, a 24/7 virtual care dental provider that allows Aetna dental members access to a dental provider day or night.
Members can connect remotely with dentists through a virtual visit via phone or video conference. Dental providers can facilitate routine and/or oral evaluations of their patients, answer questions, provide advice, prescribe appropriate medication and refer patients to a specialist as needed.
Why Virtual Dental Care Makes Sense
Emergency Room Diversion
Today it’s estimated that emergency room visits for dental problems cost $2 billion annually.
Employee Satisfaction
Virtual care is convenient, inexpensive and easy. Members can connect to a provider right through the Aetna member website or app.
Better Workplace Productivity
Anywhere access and prompt treatment removes the need for travel and improves symptoms, thus reducing time away from work.
This exciting partnership is just one of the many ways Aetna is ensuring that members get access to the care they need-when they need it the most. Learn more about the New Virtual Dentistry provider and how it can help your clients.
