Help with dental and vision insurance claims

Help make the claims process easy for your employees.

Get answers to common questions about submitting claims, getting information, and more.

Most providers submit claims to us on the employee’s behalf. We encourage this as it ensures the best and most accurate submission of the claim.

If employees need to submit their own claim, no claim form is needed. The employee can send us:

  1. Provider's itemized statement, including:
  • ADA codes and billed amounts for services performed
  • Providers name, tax identification number (TIN) and address
  • Date(s) of service
  1. Copy of the front and back of the ID card.

Send the information to:

  • Mail: Principal Life Insurance Company
         PO Box 10357
         Des Moines, IA 50306–0357
  • Fax: 866-301-1502

If additional information is needed, we’ll contact the employee.

Employees can get dental claim information on their smartphones or mobile devices with the Principal mobile app or by using their personal login at principal.com.
