Which is the most common model where the administrator of the plan contracts with various dental offices that are principally fee-for-service practices?

  1. Staff model

  2. Individual practice association

  3. Closed model

  4. Network model

The correct answer is: Network model

The most common model is the Network Model because it allows for flexibility for the administrator to contract with various dental offices, giving patients more choices. The Staff Model only has one dental office that is owned and operated by the administrator. The Individual Practice Association only contracts with individual dentists, so it is not as common as the network model. The Closed Model is similar to a staff model, but it has a smaller group of dentists that are controlled by the administrator, limiting patient choices. Therefore, the Network Model is the most commonly used model in these types of plans.
