# Sun Life timely filing limit

Answer: Sun Life publishes claims addresses and a dispute channel but no filing windows. Its provider FAQ sends PPO dentists to The Dentist Guide at Dental Health Alliance (DHA, “a member of the Sun Life group of companies”), which is gated behind the DHA dentist login. Provider dispute / grievance: No filing window is published for provider disputes — only the channel. Provider contracts and plan documents override published manuals — the contract number controls.

## Review state

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.
