United Concordia's credentialing process is
intended to ensure that enrollees who select a
participating dentist anywhere in the country can
be confident that the dentist has met minimal,
uniform requirements.
The process involves a screening of dentists applying
for participation (selection) and a regular
evaluation of those already a part of our networks
(retention). The decision to accept or
retain a dentist is based on all available information.
To be eligible to participate in United Concordia's
fee-for-service networks a dentist must:
Demonstrate a Utilization Review
