Connection Dental Plus®

GEHA's Connection Dental Plus plan offers year-round enrollment for:

  • Current or former federal employees
  • Survivor annuitants
  • Dependent children no longer eligible under their parent's FEDVIP dental plan

This plan allows dependents who have aged out of their parent's FEDVIP plan to have their own comprehensive dental plan that offers affordable coverage for routine, intermediate and major dental care services.

Enrollees of the Connection Dental Plus plan will receive:

  • Dental benefits that provide comprehensive and affordable coverage for preventive dental care services
  • Year-round enrollment with eligibility until age 26
  • Worldwide coverage with a large national network
  • Access to included benefits including discounts on vision, electric toothbrush, teeth whitening, hearing aids and Life Alert services
  • Dependents of a G.E.H.A health or dental plan member pay a lower premium than dependents of non-G.E.H.A members
  • Bank draft or quarterly billing payment options available
  • Coverage begins the first of the month following receipt of all requirements
  • See below for benefits and waiting periods
