United Concordia pays claims for authorized dental care. Treatment must be provided by a United Concordia network dentist in order to be eligible for payment, unless otherwise designated by United Concordia.

3. 3 Geographical Areas of Service Dental care under the ADDP will be available in the United States, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. United Concordia offers an extensive dental provider network of more than 66,000 dentists.

They may seek treatment from any civilian dentist, however follow-up care with a non-network dentist is not authorized.

ADSMs must notify United Concordia upon appointment cancellation or reschedule at 1-866-984-ADDP (2337) or email addpdcf@ucci.com. Extenuating circumstances may occasionally prevent ADSMs from cancelling within 24 hours of the appointment. If this occurs, ADSMs can call United Concordia to reschedule.
