The EmblemHealth FEDVIP Dental Program

At EmblemHealth, we believe your dental health is key to your overall health. Did you know preventive dental visits like routine exams and cleanings not only help to maintain your oral health, but your overall health as well? These services can diagnose tooth decay before it progresses into a more invasive and expensive treatment, prevent tooth loss, assess gum disease, screen for oral cancer, and keep your smile bright! Infection and inflammation in the mouth can increase the risk of developing medical conditions like diabetes, heart disease, stroke, respiratory diseases, and even cancer. Brushing and flossing daily, regular dental check-ups, and good oral healthcare are important to help maintain your general health.

That’s why we offer comprehensive benefit plans through the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP).

The EmblemHealth FEDVIP Dental Program is a unique program created especially for federal employees and retirees. The program is available only to eligible federal employees who live in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut in the following counties:

New York State: All counties.
New Jersey: Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, and Union.
Pennsylvania: Monroe and Pike.
Connecticut: Fairfield, Litchfield, and New Haven.

As a FEDVIP member, you can choose from any of our thousands of network dentists. Plus, it’s easy to receive the dental care you need because you don’t need any referrals with this plan.

Our FEDVIP program stands out because it offers:

Low cost-sharing.
Comprehensive benefits. Our plan includes 100% in-network dental coverage for preventive dental services and complex procedures.

2026 EmblemHealth FEDVIP Dental Program

It’s easy to receive care when you have our FEDVIP Dental plan. You’ll be able to choose from any of our thousands of network dentists and specialists in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut without ever needing a referral or filling out paperwork.

You’ll even receive reimbursement for covered services performed by out-of-network dentists based on the Preferred plan’s in-network allowance, once you meet the plan’s applicable deductible. Should you choose to receive care from out-of-network dentists, just submit a claim to us. We’ll send you a check for the amount we cover. Please be aware, however, that since we don’t have a payment contract with out-of-network dentists, the amount we pay you may not be the full amount the dentist charged.
