Statement of Understanding for Areas 1, 2 and 3 (non-network counties only - see page 7.) I understand the difference between a Participating Dentistand a Non-Participating Dentist, and would like to apply. I know that I probably will not be able to use a Participating Dentist and that I will probably pay more for dental care.When I use Non-Participating Dentists, I will pay the difference between the limited benefit that the plan pays and the actual charge by the Non-Participating Dentist.This means that I may be responsible for a larger portion of my dental bills.
