Patient referral approval

Do I need approval to refer a patient to a specialist?

No. Prior approval is not required when you refer a patient to a specialist. However, we do suggest that you refer your patients to a Delta Dental PPO participating specialist to minimize your patients' out-of-pocket costs. To get a list of participating specialists in your patients' area, use our online dentist directory, or call DASI, our automated voice response system, at 800-524-0149.
