In this episode, we discuss the topic of how insurance plans, such as Delta Dental, pay for out-of-network services. Many individuals are navigating the process of transitioning away from insurance plans and understanding how out-of-network payments work is crucial in this journey. Also, Ben highlights that there’s no universal industry standard for out-of-network compensation. Instead, it varies by insurance provider, state, and specific plans.
