Which dental plan do West Allis BadgerCare members use?

Adults as well as children can use BadgerCare Plus for covered dental treatment. In Milwaukee County, Chorus Community Health Plans members receive dental coverage through Chorus.

What if I need fillings or dentures at a teaching clinic?

The school is at 1801 West Wisconsin Avenue in Milwaukee, 414-288-6790. Patients using private insurance pay first; the school can submit a claim for reimbursement. That payment rule matters when choosing between teaching care and an in-network private dentist.
