Important DeltaCare Plan Update!

MOSES Members enrolled in DeltaCare,
Important Changes to Your DeltaCare Dental Coverage
Delta Dental of Massachusetts has notified the MA/MOSES Health and Welfare Trust that the current DeltaCare plan will “sunset” and no longer be supported after June 1, 2025, due to a significant reduction in participating dentists. Many dental providers have recently left the network, making it increasingly difficult for plan participants to find care. Delta Dental refers to this as “network erosion”, and they have advised that continuing in the plan would no longer serve our members effectively.
To ensure uninterrupted dental coverage with a broader network of providers, the MA/MOSES Health and Welfare Trust voted on April 28, 2025, to transition all current DeltaCare members into another of Delta Dental’s insurance products, the Delta Dental PPO plan. This new plan offers access to over 4,000 dentists in Massachusetts and a National Network – a substantial improvement compared to the current DeltaCare plan which only included less than 10% of Massachusetts dentists.
This change is intended to cause the least amount of disruption to members currently using DeltaCare. There is an additional cost associated with the Delta Dental PPO plan which will be fully covered by the MA/MOSES Health and Welfare Trust until December 31st, 2025. So, although the new plan costs more, your weekly co-premium will remain the same. No action is required on your part at this time. Delta Dental will manage the transition to the new Delta Dental PPO plan and will send you updated materials about your new benefits.
As always, the Open Enrollment period will take place this November/December 2025. At that time, you will have the opportunity to evaluate your dental plan options and make changes. Any updates to the plan offerings will be communicated clearly ahead of enrollment.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Very truly yours,
Patrick Russell
President
MOSES
