Working with Employers Dental Services
Whether you’re already a part of our network or looking to join, we’ll help make your job easier. Keep us up to date on your practice, so our members can easily find you.
Office address changes
If you need to change your practice’s address, email EDS Provider Relations. Include your office name, address, and phone number.
Patient records
Arizona state law requires dental providers to keep and maintain patient records, including X-rays (radiographs), according to Arizona Revised Statutes Title 32-1264.
Patients who are moving, seeking a second opinion, changing dentists, etc., can request copies of their records. If your office charges a fee for this service, EDS members will pay for record transfer–duplication as outlined in their plan’s Enrollment & Coverage Guide.
