Dentovio public answer
Humana timely filing limit
There is no single filing window for Humana Dental.
Sourced answer
There is no single filing window for Humana Dental. The windows are public in Humana's own Dental Provider Manual, split by product line: “On most fully insured commercial products, claims must be submitted within 15 months from the date of service and Medicare claims must be submitted within 12 months from the date of service.” Corrected claims: No corrected-claim deadline is published; Humana's Q4 provider newsletter only explains marking a claim “Replacement of Prior Claim” in the Availity claim tool. Written appeal (grievance-and-appeal form): The deadline is not a published number — Humana's manual sets it at “the time limits set forth in the dental insurance policy … or the time frame established by applicable state law.” Provider contracts and plan documents override published manuals — the contract number controls.

Dentovio is an independent publisher — not a payer, the American Dental Association, or any government agency, and it is unaffiliated with the insurers named here. This page was drafted with AI assistance and verified against the primary sources linked here. It has not been reviewed by a credentialed dental billing specialist or attorney. These pages record filing, correction, appeal, records, and recoupment windows as read in each payer's published documents on the last-verified date — and record honestly where no public number exists. Provider contracts override published manuals, editions change, and several payers set different rules per state, network, or program. Educational reference only, not billing or legal advice; confirm the controlling number in your participation contract and the payer's current provider manual before relying on it.
