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.

I work in healthcare and this aboslutely the worst healthcare plan. My elderly mother (98yrs and very healthy for her age) is on it and they continually raise her medicare premiums. I have theUHC dental plan and it is horrible. They denied a crown I needed. The dentist sent the additional information they asked for and still denied the procedure which cost me $2,86.00! In addition, the two agents I talked to had no idea how to find information to help me. Do not use UHC.

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.

If I could give negative stars I would. Absolutely the worse experience ever. If I ever need anything it is impossible. I needed two basic questions and I waited on hold for 3 hours - legitimately, 3 hours! Then when I finally got to a rep she couldn't even answer either of my questions. These were basic questions mind you. I couldn't believe this. I hope you don't need anything from them, a claim or even a question being answered because you'll be sorry. Honestly I think they had a wait time so long in hopes that people would just hang up. Ridiculous.
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.
