“Fifty-seven percent of the population today does have some form of dental benefit,” says Chuck Misasi, senior vice president of sales and marketing for the Careington International Corporation. “That does include employers as well as private insurance. The market has been relatively flat for the last 10 years.”
In a session titled “The Evolution of Dental Benefits in an Exchange-Driven Marketplace,” part of EBN’s Benefits Forum & Expo, Misasi says employers must be creative when dealing with shifting dental options within their health care offerings. What’s more, they must think independently.
