I have been with UnitedHealthcare sense April 2016. They have taken such good care of me. One thing has changed which I do not like. They lowered the amount of money they give us for utility payments, food and over the counter medicine by half.

Takes 2 hours for an advocate to answer the phone. I wanted to pay my bill and register but after talking to them I think it’s best for me to go somewhere els. Need to hire more people to answer the phones and more knowledgeable people. Booo

Delta is a company benefit but If I didn't have it we would have been responsible for several thousand $$ . Our new Dentist is not in the Delta Network but they still file everything for us & Delta has refunded us almost immediately. You don't even need an I.D. card just name & company affiliation and open wide.

Refused coverage for ridiculous reason - claimed that the implant was not covered because "the tooth never existed since we don't have a record of extraction". If I were born without that tooth, there would be no room install the implant but any sort of reasoning that doesn't contribute to their bottom line simply does not exist.
The Final Word
Delta Dental makes it easy to view and compare its dental plans online with a chart. This allows you to assess your coverage options easily and decide whether or not to pursue more details about plans in your area and their cost.
In contrast, UnitedHealthcare does not offer plan-specific information until you call or provide more details on your location online. While it takes an extra step, you'll see customized results for plans available in your area and what the premiums are. You'll have to do the same to see additional information from Delta Dental.
The opposite is true for group dental insurance plans. UnitedHealthcare offers good, easily accessible general information about its group plans online, whereas you'll have to call Delta Dental or visit one of its state-specific sites for more details.
Both companies offer dental plans designed for retirees. To learn more about these plans, you'll need to input your state to view your options and availability.
The key difference between UnitedHealthcare and Delta Dental is that UnitedHealthcare is better known as a health insurance provider. It also offers vision insurance. Delta Dental specializes in dental and vision insurance.
If you're looking to build a good benefits package for your employees, choosing UnitedHealthcare means that you can find benefits for your employees under one plan. If you want to buy from a company that specializes in dental insurance, Delta Dental has the advantage.
