      Accepting Insurance as Payment In Full

      Teamsters Local 995 has made arrangements with several dental care providers who have agreed to accept Teamsters insurance as payment in full for services rendered. (Cancellation fees for missed appointments are not covered by this agreement.) Local 995 members eligible for Teamsters Local 995 dental coverage will not have to pay co-pays or deductibles for plan-covered services through these providers. Before using any of these providers you should take the following steps:

      1. Identify yourself to the provider as a Teamster Local 995 member covered by the Teamsters Security Fund for Southern Nevada dental plan.

      2. Before any work begins, ask if the provider is still waiving the co-pays and deductibles for covered services rendered under the Teamsters Security Fund for Southern Nevada. If they are not, you may wish to contact another provider on the list for service and contact our offices with this information as soon as possible.

      This list is in no way intended to indicate this office's endorsement for any of the following providers, nor is it intended to imply anything other than the fact that these providers have all agreed to waive the deductibles and co-pays on covered services. Should you or any member of your family encounter any difficulties with any of these providers, please advise our office at your earliest convenience.

    • Diversified Dental Services, Inc.
      Diversified Dental Services, Inc., is an independent Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) serving Nevada since 1995. Diversified Dental Services, Inc. contracts with dentists to provide their services at a discount from their normal fees. Clients receive dental services at discounted rates when they seek dental care from a PPO dentist.

      Visit this website for a complete list of providers and services.
    • How the Dental Benefit Plan Works
      The dental benefit plan is a network plan. You may see any dentist you prefer, whether of on Diversified Dental Services providers list or not. This means the trust will pay only 80% of the rates contracted with Diversified Dental Services, Inc., any cost a dentist outside the Diversified Dental Services providers list may charge above these contracted rates you will be responsible for. When you see the dentist, you pay the dentist for the service (or make arrangements with the dentist for payment), and once you have paid the dentist, submit the receipt to the Fund Administrative Office with a claim form for reimbursement.
    • Orthodontia Lifetime Maximum Benefit
      PPO: $1,200 lifetime maximum benefit for children under 19 (this benefit is available for each participant under age 19 after 9 full months of coverage under this Plan)

      Non-PPO: $1,200 lifetime maximum benefit for children under 19 (this benefit is available for each participant under age 19 after 9 full months of coverage under this Plan)

      The Calendar Year and Lifetime Maximum Orthodontic Benefit that will be paid for a covered dependent child under age 19 for orthodontic treatment is shown in the Schedule of Benefits. (A covered dependent must have accumulated 9 full months of coverage prior to the commencement of orthodontic work.) The amount of benefits for Orthodontic Charges will be paid as follows:


      1. $300 – banding

      2. $300 – first six months of adjustments

      3. $300 – second six months adjustments

  • United Labor Agency of Nevada (U.L.A.N.)

    AFL-CIO Community Services

    ULAN, a non-profit agency, is a joint venture of the Nevada AFL-CIO and the United Way.

    • AFL-CIO & United Way
      ULAN is the only labor sponsored United Way funded community services agency in Nevada with special emphasis on assisting union members and their families.

      ULAN provides various programs to assist union members and their families who have been victims of an accident, illness, layoff, disaster or any situation that has caused a hardship. These include information and referral to access existing community services such as counseling, education and training, food, shelter, clothing, financial, medical and legal aid. ULAN also provides emergency assistance, food baskets, clothing and household items and citizenship assistance. To receive assistance from ULAN, union members must be referred by their union.
    • Citizenship Assistance
      Through donations and fund-raising, ULAN is able to provide on-site emergency assistance to prevent homelessness, hunger, utility turn-offs, and to aid in obtaining health care needs, clothing, household items and employment fees.

    • Holiday Food Baskets
      During the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays, ULAN provides special holiday foods to needy union members so they can prepare a nice holiday dinner for their families.
    • How does ULAN work?
      When members of local unions and their families are referred to ULAN, they are interviewed by ULAN staff who will assess their needs. These needs are met by referrals to appropriate off-site agencies or through the direct assistance programs provided on-site by ULAN. All discussions held with the ULAN staff remain confidential. There is no fee for ULAN's assistance.
    • ULAN Programs
      ULAN locates available resources, prescreens for eligibility and makes referrals to appropriate human and health services. ULAN works with other non-profit, government and private agencies to facilitate potential solutions.
  • Vision Benefits

    The Trust Fund provides vision benefits through Vision Service Plan (VSP). Vision Service Plan (VSP) provides eye exams, and, if your vision needs to be corrected, lenses and frames or contact lenses through their network of VSP Doctors who include licensed ophthalmologists, opticians and optometrists. The Trust Fund provides this vision benefit plan to all employees, retirees and dependents who are enrolled under the Trust Fund.

    • Contact Lenses
      Medically Necessary Contact Lenses
      One pair every 12 months if necessary instead of frames and lenses

      Elective Contact Lenses
      $105 allowance for one pair every 12 months, if necessary instead of frames and lenses
    • Cost of Vision Benefits
      When you or your enrolled dependents select a doctor from the VSP list, the vision benefit covers examination, professional services, lenses, and a wide selection of frames at no expense to you, except a $5 deductible. Copayments are to be paid to the VSP Doctor at the time of examination. Any additional care, services and/or materials not covered by the vision benefit may be arranged between you and your doctor.
    • Deductible - Vision Plan
      PPO: $5 co-payment

      Non-PPO: $5 co-payment
    • Frames
      PPO: 1 set every 24 months, if necessary.

      Non-PPO: Up to $45
    • How the Vision Plan Works
      VSP has a network of vision care providers (ophthalmologists, optician and optometrists) from which you can choose. Follow these steps:

      1. Obtain a list of VSP Doctors in the area from the Fund Administrative Office.

      2. Select a VSP doctor from the list.

      3. When you call to make an appointment inform the VSP Doctor that you are a VSP participant.

      4. The VSP Doctor will contact Vision Service Plan for your eligibility status and a benefit form.

      5. Pay the $5 copayment to the VSP Doctor when you receive the service.

      6. Payment for any additional (non-covered) services can be arranged between you and your doctor.
    • Lenses
      Single Vision, Bifocals, Trifocals, Lenticular

      PPO: 1 pair every 24 months, if necessary.

      Non-PPO: Up to $40
    • Seeing Non-VSP Providers
      You or your eligible dependents may obtain services from a non member optometrist, ophthalmologist or dispensing optician. You and your enrolled dependents that follow this course must still obtain a benefit form, which you can obtain from the Fund Administrative Office. You should pay the doctor his or her full fee. You will then be reimbursed by VSP according to the reimbursement schedule for non-providers provided in the full Summary Plan Description.
    • Vision Exam
      PPO: 1 exam every 12 months by VSP provider

      Non-PPO: Up to $40
