When a DPPO is primary coverage, the charges paid by the patient are based on the agreed DPPO discounted fees--not the DHMO schedule of charges. The dentist would bill the DPPO for the procedures performed. If the dentist is in the DHMO network, he or she would also get his or her regular capitation payment for that patient.

Your secondary is HMO which gives you no deductible to meet why do you have to use your primary where you have a 500 deductible?

When you have both primary and secondary insurance, the primary plan typically pays first, regardless of the deductible. This means that any covered medical expenses will first be billed to the primary insurance, which may require you to meet a deductible before it pays. Once the primary insurance has processed the claim, the secondary HMO can then cover additional costs, often without a deductible. This coordination ensures that the primary plan pays for its share before the secondary kicks in.
