About Us | ADA-Sponsored Insurance Plans – Insurance for Dentists and Their Practices

About Us

Member Support

The ADA and Great-West Financial:
A unique relationship.

Since 1934, the ADA has joined with Great-West Financial to design insurance products that meet the unique needs of dentists. This long-time relationship continues to provide ADA members with access to quality group insurance at competitive rates.

The ADA sponsors the group program, and the favorable claims experience is shared with the participants in the form of a Premium Credit discount. As a Plan-specific discount, the Premium Credit reduces billed premium for all Plan participants, regardless of coverage amount.

We’ve learned a lot about dentists over more than 80 years

We serve only dentists and their families, so our focus and dedication to the dental community enables us to offer ADA members unparalleled products and service.

ADA-sponsored members insurance plans were designed to provide:

• Protection — for you, your family, and your practice
• Financial tools — that leverage your insurance to help you attain personal and professional goals

Whether it's the stress of collateralizing a practice loan or the frustrations resulting from the setbacks of a disability, we've experienced it through our ADA member dentists. That means you can rest assured that through our expertise we can help guide you through the insurance buying process, so you can stay focused on your practice.

We’re listening to you and feel confident you’ll experience something quite different with the ADA-sponsored members insurance plans.
