What happens to the benefit dollars when patient does not use their full annual dental benefit?

When an employer uses Bento to administer a self-funded group dental plan, that employer determines what will happen with excess funds. Some of Bento’s employer groups opt for a carryover, while others keep the money in their bank accounts. Because Bento does not hold any money (they facilitate its movement), the employer keeps the money until your dentist renders a service for your treatment.
