Co-payment information:
A co-payment is a percentage of fees that aren’t covered and that you will have to pay directly to the dentist/dental hygienist/dental care practitioner.
Your co-payment is based on your adjusted family net income. Even if you are covered 100%, you may have to pay the difference between the CDCP rates and dentist rates.
