Delta Dental launches updated website for Spanish-language speakers

Spanish-language speakers can now more easily find up-to-date oral health information and personal benefit details, thanks to an updated website launched by a group of Delta Dental companies.

“We've made it easier to find what might be termed 'critical benefit information' that our Spanish speakers can use to make the most of Delta Dental benefits”

The Spanish-language site for Delta Dental of California, Delta Dental of Pennsylvania, Delta Dental Insurance Company and their affiliates now more closely mirrors their English-language site, providing access in Spanish to corporate news, dental health and benefits information. Redesigned for easier viewing of products and services, the site also is easier for users to navigate and includes many links to handy web services.

Spanish is the third most popular language in the world among Internet users, according to Internet World Stats, which researches online usage and language statistics. In addition, nearly 20 percent - or about 8 million - of all Spanish speakers in the U.S. visit the Internet.

"We've made it easier to find what might be termed 'critical benefit information' that our Spanish speakers can use to make the most of Delta Dental benefits," said Solomon Romano, Hispanic marketing manager for the group of Delta Dental companies. "And while we provide important information to all our constituents - enrollees, providers, brokers, employers and benefits administrators, as well as the general public - we've gone a step beyond by adding more of it in Spanish as well as in English."

The revamped site, at www.deltadentalins.com/espanol, continues to allow enrollees easy access to many customized details about their Delta Dental plan, such as benefits, eligibility and claims status. Access to the provider directory and other web-based tools remain unchanged.
