The list of plans that TriValley Primary Care accepts changes quite frequently. The best advice is to discuss insurance coverage when you make your appointment. Some plans which TriValley hasn't contracted with directly, will subscribe to a network (collection of plans) which TriValley has joined.

(It's confusing for us, too!)

Other dental insurance plans pay a certain percentage of the allowable fee and the patient is responsible for the remaining co-payment. Depending on the dentist that you go to, this amount will vary.

A8: Coordination of benefits refers to the process of applying benefits from two insurance plans to a claim for services. When a patient is covered by two insurance plans (dual coverage) benefits are usually coordinated so that all possible payments are made on claims for services the member received. Because Ho'ala is not an insurance plan, we DO NOT coordinate benefits.
