Limiting Age
The age at which a dependent covered by a dental plan is no longer eligible to receive benefits. Most dental plans offer an extension of benefits beyond the limiting age of coverage to student and handicapped dependents.

Student Dependent Coverage
If the dependent qualifies for student dependent coverage, a follow up Dependent Certification Form will be sent approximately every twelve months thereafter, with coverage being extended appropriately. It is important to make certain a current copy of the form is on file with United Concordia to ensure continued dependent coverage.

Special Needs Dependent Coverage
If the dependent qualifies for special needs dependent coverage, the recertification period will vary based on the nature of the disability and the prognosis provided by the physician. It is important to make certain a current copy of the form is on file with United Concordia to ensure continued dependent coverage.
