Where the eligible patient is treated by a Delta Dental PPOTM dentist, the fee for the covered service(s) will not exceed the Delta Dental PPO maximum allowable charge(s). Where the eligible patient is treated by a Delta Dental Premier® dentist who does not participate in Delta Dental PPO or by a Participating Specialist, the dentist has agreed not to charge eligible patients more than the dentist's filed fee or Delta Dental's established maximum plan allowance, and Delta Dental will pay such dentists based on the least of the actual fee, the filed fee, or Delta Dental’s established maximum plan allowance for the procedure(s). Claims for services provided by dentists who are neither Delta Dental Premier, Delta Dental PPO dentists, or Participating Specialists are paid based on the lesser of the dentist's actual charge or the prevailing fee.
