C. Refund to Us for Overpayment of Benefits

If we pay Dental Expense Benefits to you for expenses incurred on your own account or on account of a Dependent, and it is found that we paid more Dental Expense Benefits to you than we should have paid because:

  1. all or some of those expenses were not paid for by the Covered Persons in your Family; or
  2. any Covered Person in your Family was repaid for all or some of those expenses by a source other than from:
    1. an insurer under a policy of insurance issued to you in your name; and
    2. an insurer under a policy of insurance issued to a Covered Person in your Family who ordinarily lives in your home; and
    3. us;

we will have the right to a refund from you. The amount of the refund is the difference between:

  1. the amount of Dental Expense Benefits paid by us for those expenses; and
  2. the amount of Dental Expense Benefits which should have been paid by us for those expenses.

However, at our option, we may recover the excess amount by reducing or offsetting any future benefits payable to such person by the amount of the overpayment.
