Dental & Vision Insurance in Boise – Top 7 Reasons to Choose Us
Choosing dental and vision coverage in Boise can be confusing—allowances, waiting periods, implant exclusions, ortho rules, network differences, and eyewear benefits vary widely across carriers. Chris Antrim Insurance simplifies the decision so you can pick a plan that fits your dentist, your optometrist, and your budget.
Top 7 Reasons Boise Chooses Us
- Carrier Access: We compare Delta Dental, Blue Cross of Idaho, Ameritas, VSP, and EyeMed (and others) to find the right fit.
- Provider First: We verify your dentist/optometrist is in-network before you enroll.
- Budget‑Clear: You’ll see premiums, annual maximums, waiting periods, and allowances side‑by‑side.
- Implants/Ortho Guidance: If those procedures are likely, we’ll time enrollment to minimize waiting periods and maximize coverage.
- Medicare Coordination: We’ll pair stand‑alone dental/vision with your Medicare plan when needed.
6. Family‑Friendly: We build bundles that keep total monthly spend predictable.
7. Local Support: Questions on claims or allowances? Call us. We’re here year‑round.
What Matters Most (and Why)
- Annual Maximums: If you expect major work, higher maximums help—especially with crowns or implants.
- Waiting Periods: Many plans delay major services. We plan ahead so treatment isn’t stalled.
- Provider Networks: Keeping your current dentist/optometrist often saves more than chasing a lower premium.
- Vision Allowances: We compare frames/contact lens allowances and preferred retailers for you.

- Retiree needs cataract follow‑up and new eyewear → coordinate with Medicare and select a vision allowance that fits.
- Family wants combined dental + vision under a set monthly budget → we assemble options that keep costs predictable.
