Online Dental Insurance, Dental HMO insurance Plans in California
Question: I have a 13 year old son that need some dental care but I do not have any dental insurance in force. Since I am not looking for dental care for myself can I buy a dental HMO insurance plan for just my son?
Answer: That would really depend on the plan you are reviewing some dental HMO plans will let you buy a plan for a minor only where other will required you to have at least one adult listed as head of household. Forcing you to buy at least a couple plan for you and your minor son.
I would suggest buying a couple plan if you also do not have dental insurance the cost different between a couple and an individual plan on an HMO is generally not large normally around $10.00 – $15.00 more a month. Your dental health care is also important and you should see a dentist for at least your preventive care. With most HMO plans preventive services are free to little cost to the member.
