Read on to learn about your covered services, using the pharmacy benefit, and how to use your dental benefits

Did you know that your benefits include specialty services? Have you been avoiding the podiatrist? Putting off a colonoscopy? Talk to your primary care provider about scheduling the care you need, even specialty care!
Here are some of the many covered services you can access as a member:
  • Allergy testing
  • Rheumatology
  • Physical Therapy
  • Occupational Therapy
Interested in learning more about covered services? There is a list available here and a full explanation of benefits can be found in our newly published Member Guidebook here
Reminders for members:
Show your health plan card at the pharmacy.
Most pharmacies take your health plan card (excluding
Walgreens). For more information on pharmacies visit our webpage.
If a medicine you take is not on the list of covered medications, ask your doctor to:
‐Order a medicine from this list that is similar--your doctor can view the complete medication list through our website, or you may reference it here
‐Give you medicine samples if they have any
  • If the cost per prescription at the pharmacy is over $10.00, the medication is NOT covered by the IHP. Please make sure to request generic medication at the pharmacy.
  • Please note that our plan also covers a free blood glucose meter. Please click here to learn more about the resources IHP provides for diabetes management. 
Eligible members can receive two cleanings, X-rays and an exam annually with dental benefits through Delta Dental. Other covered services include fillings, crowns, root canals, dentures and extractions. You can find the answers to some frequently asked questions about dental benefits here.

If eligible, you should have received an ID card for your dental coverage (it is a green card that says Delta Dental). If you did not receive a card and are eligible for these benefits, call Delta Dental at 800-870-9988. You can also sign up for the Delta Dental Member Portal here. Once registered, you can print a copy of your ID card, view benefit information, find Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements and much more.

Many members ask how they can find a dentist that accepts their coverage. Your Delta Dental benefits give you access to the Delta Dental EPO™ provider network. You can find a dentist using the search engine here, or by calling Delta Dental at 800-870-9988.

Note: Some covered services require a copay; you should ask your dentist about the cost of the treatment before proceeding.
