Holy crap that’s a horrible policy and opens them up to tremendous scrutiny and criticism.
In America dental isn’t even touched under healthcare policies. Dental insurance is a joke. If you have it it’s probably $300 a year in premiums to cover $1000-1500 of work if you spend $2000-3000. A single crown will eat that and maybe more up instantly. A dental implant costs $5k or more for a single tooth and takes 3 visits over almost 9 months at best if you want to go that route. Step one of a dental implant is 90days with a missing tooth as your body fills in the scaffolding on the bone graft. Step two is opening it back up putting in the titanium anchor screw and closing it back up while your body heals around the screw for another few months. Then you finally have a tooth as they open your gums up expose the screw and put the top of the implant in.
Sheetz employees make what $12 or $13 an hour?
What a sadistic policy.
Either provide a generous comprehensive solution or recognize that we have a problem in America and at the very least don’t make a policy regarding it.
