New Dental Coverage Options Now Accepted at Chiricahua Dental Centers: Expanded Access for Military Families and Retirees
For many military families and retirees, finding dental care that accepts the right insurance can be a challenge. At Chiricahua Dental Centers, we are committed to making high-quality dental care accessible to the communities we serve, including the many active-duty families and veterans who live in Cochise County.
We are excited to share that Chiricahua now accepts United Concordia Elite Plus (retiree) and United Concordia TDP (TRICARE Dental Program) for active military dependents.
This expansion means more military families can receive dental care close to home without worrying about traveling long distances to find an in-network provider.
Expanded Dental Coverage for Military Families
For years, Chiricahua Dental Centers have proudly served patients with a limited group of insurance plans, including:
- AHCCCS (Medicaid)
- Cigna Dental PPO
- Delta Dental of Arizona PPO
While these plans allowed us to care for many families across Cochise County, we knew that military families and retirees often relied on United Concordia and TRICARE Dental Program coverage. By adding these plans, Chiricahua is expanding access to care for the service members and families who are such an important part of our local community.
If you are:
- A military retiree with United Concordia Elite Plus, or
- A dependent covered by the TRICARE Dental Program (United Concordia TDP)
you can now schedule dental appointments with our team.
