Why enrollees don't need an ID card

If enrollees would still like an ID card, they can print one online Just go to our online benefits and eligibility system, enter the enrollee's ID/SS# and last name, and you will be presented with a screen that displays the enrollee's personal information. At the bottom of the page, click on the button that says "Print ID Card."

Just as you no longer must present a ticket at an airline check-in counter to confirm your reservation, enrollees of Delta Dental's fee-for-service programs (DeltaPremier, DeltaPremier USA, Delta's Adaptable Table Programs, DeltaPreferred Option and DeltaPreferred Option USA) don't need an ID card to verify their Delta Dental coverage.

When visiting a Delta dentist, enrollees simply provide their social security or identification number. The dental office can use that information to verify their eligibility and benefits through Delta Dental's web site or toll-free number.

By not issuing ID cards to every client, we're able to minimize administrative expenses, giving clients maximum coverage for their dental benefits dollar. And with these easy-to-use benefits, Delta Dental enrollees can visit any dentist anywhere in the world and never have to worry about forgetting an ID card for a dental appointment.
