Humana PPO
Is Van Nuys Panorama Dental Center in-network with Humana?
Yes. Van Nuys Panorama Dental Center, at 8227 Van Nuys Blvd in Panorama City, CA, is an in-network dentist for Humana PPO dental plans. That means you pay Humana's agreed in-network fees, and our team verifies your coverage before your visit.
Humana offers dental PPO plans to individuals, through employers and as part of some Medicare Advantage plans. Humana PPO plans let you see dentists in Humana's network for lower costs and usually cover some care outside the network. Humana also has dental HMO plans, which work differently.
Seeing an in-network dentist usually means lower out-of-pocket costs than going out of network, because Humana and our office have agreed on fees in advance. Your exact share still depends on your plan's deductible, coverage levels and annual maximum, so we'll explain what to expect before treatment begins.

What PPO plans usually cover
What does Humana PPO dental insurance typically cover?
Every Humana plan is different, but most dental PPO plans group care into three levels. Your plan's benefits summary shows your exact percentages, deductible and annual maximum.
Preventive care
Exams, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride and sealants. Often covered at the highest percentage, sometimes 100%.
Basic care
Fillings, simple extractions and often deep cleanings. Usually covered at a lower percentage after your deductible.
Major care
Crowns and bridges, root canals on some plans, and sometimes implants. Often covered at about half, and may have waiting periods.
