Timely filing limits
Delta Dental of Tennessee does not publish one filing deadline for every plan on its provider pages. The limit depends on the employer group or plan, so confirm it on the patient's plan documents or with provider services before you rely on it. Our guide to timely filing limits covers the common ranges.
EFT and ERA enrollment
Enroll in direct deposit (EFT) as an account feature inside the Dental Office Toolkit. Claims for EFT-enrolled offices are typically paid within 24 hours.
Credentialing and network enrollment
Contact: https://www.dentalxchange.com/partners/ddtn
Credentialing and recredentialing are online through DentalXChange. Dentists are recredentialed every 3 years and receive an email from DentalXChange when due; no action is needed before then.
Plan clauses to check during verification
Missing tooth clause
Whether a missing tooth clause applies depends on the group plan. Ask whether the plan excludes replacing teeth lost before coverage began, and note the answer before you present a bridge or implant. See how to spot the missing tooth clause.
Waiting periods
Waiting periods are set by the group plan. Confirm the waiting period for basic and major services and the patient's effective date.
Downgrades (alternate benefit)
Handbook: where alternative treatments exist, benefits are for the least costly professionally acceptable treatment; the difference for a costlier treatment is collectable from the patient.
Frequency limits
Frequency limits vary by plan. Confirm cleanings, exams, bitewings, full-mouth X-rays and fluoride limits, and the date of the last service billed.
Verification checklist for Delta Dental of Tennessee
- Call DASI at (800) 223-3104 with the office TIN for 24/7 eligibility, benefits and claim status: press 1 for eligibility, 2 for benefits, 3 for claims.
- Use the Dental Office Toolkit for free, instant claim processing and benefit lookups.
- If a previously paid procedure is suddenly denied, check whether the office is on Focused Review; those claims go to the Farmington Hills, MI box.
- Group and individual contract terms override the handbook's general processing policies; confirm frequency and waiting periods for each patient.
- Multi-factor authentication is now required for all Dental Office Toolkit accounts.
- Record the representative's name, the call reference number and the date for every phone verification.
