Contact Us - Grievance

United Concordia is committed to providing quality outcomes through our network of dental professionals. We have a Dental Oversight Committee comprised of experienced dentists that credentials network providers every three years and monitors quality issues. Actions to correct quality issues include educational letters to providers, review of their patient records, in office review of records and examination of patients by a dental director, and termination from the network. We employ benchmark utilization reviews to ensure network dentists provide industry-standard levels of treatment. Our team of dentist advisors perform pre and post payment clinical reviews. United Concordia has well established Grievance and Appeal programs to ensure patient satisfaction and address quality concerns. If you have a quality concern regarding procedures that have been received from a United Concordia network dentist, please address them in the following manner:

• You should address the first incident regarding clinical quality with the treating dentist to provide an opportunity to rectify the concern. If preferred, you can request that United Concordia contact the treating dentist for corrective action.
• If the treating dentist does not correct the issue after the initial request, you should contact United Concordia to address your concerns.
• To file a grievance, submit the online Grievance Form to United Concordia or submit a request in writing to United Concordia at:

Letters should include the sponsor’s name and Social Security number or the patient’s Department of Defense Benefits Number, the patient’s name and relationship to the sponsor, the dentist’s name and address, and an explanation of the concern. United Concordia will investigate the concern, resolve it as appropriate, and notify the requestor of the results.
