What is the difference between a Delta Dental PPO dentist and one who is not a Delta Dental PPO?

Delta Dental PPO dentists are contracted with Moda Health to provide dental care to you and your covered dependents. If you receive care from a dentist who is not a Delta Dental PPO dentist, out-of-network coverage applies. Delta Dental PPO dentists also have agreed to submit any necessary claims to Moda Health.
