Liberty Dental Plan is an independent dental insurer and administrator for Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and commercial products. In Florida, it participates as one of the statewide dental plans in the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC) dental program. Payer portals, forms, IDs, and procedures change frequently. Timely-filing limits and other participation terms come from the applicable current payer materials and your executed agreement. Use this page as a starting point, then verify the product, entity, provider, location, and effective date with the payer.

Who they are

Enrollment and credentialing

Start at Liberty’s programs-and-plans page, libertydentalplan.com/about/programs-plans, and route to the provider process for the specific state and program. For Florida Medicaid, the operative document is Liberty’s Florida Medicaid Provider Reference Guide; enrollment, preauthorization, claims, and appeals rules for the SMMC dental program live there, not in a generic national manual.2 As with any Medicaid dental plan, a Liberty contract sits on top of state Medicaid agency enrollment. See Medicaid dental.

Operational notes

  • Use the guide for the specific program. Liberty administers several products, and the Florida Medicaid guide does not govern a different state or line of business.
  • MA dental through Liberty follows the MA plan’s benefit design; fee schedules and caps are plan-specific. See Medicare Advantage dental.
  • State contracts can change after procurement. Verify Liberty’s current role on the state Medicaid dental program page.
