The purpose of a certificate of creditable coverage is to assure that pre-existing conditions are not excluded in your next policy of coverage. Since a dental procedure in process like a crown is completed by the previous carrier even after the expiration of a policy and dental policies rarely exclude other pre-existing conditions (except perhaps for missing teeth), there is no reason to issue this certificate. The federal law that requires the issuance of this certificate applies to medical carriers issuing health policies not dental insurers.
Assuming you want to know what is a "Certificate of Credible Coverage" - this is a document provided to you by an insuracne company after you drop their coverage provided the coverage was a HIPAA qualified plan. Most company plans are HIPAA qualified. Here is why they send it to you. Under HIPAA regs if you move from one plan to another and have a break in coverage of less than 63 days then the new carrier can NOT impose a pre-existing conditions clause. So if you had MS and moved from job A to job B with less than a 63 day lapse in coverage and had your Certificate, the insurance carrier for job B would have to cover that condition day 1.
Your plan is required to make that determination for you based on actuarial analysis. Each year, that analysis needs to be completed by 9.30 for the next calendar year's plan. If you are covered by your employer, your employer likely received a statement of creditable coverage from the plan.
A certificate of insurance is necessary to show coverage limits. Any business you plan to deal with should hold a current certificate of insurance to be sure coverage is current.
