Improved Dental Care Access in Medicaid Program
This act aims to improve access to dental services for individuals enrolled in the Medicaid program. It introduces changes to reduce administrative burdens for dentists and expand the scope of available services, potentially leading to easier access to dental care and a wider range of treatments for citizens.
Key points
Easier Dentist Participation: Reduced bureaucracy and simpler rules for dentists to participate in Medicaid, encouraging more professionals to treat Medicaid patients.
Broader Service Coverage: Medicaid will cover more dental services, including dentures, implants, and oral disease treatment.
Streamlined Audits: Dental claim audits will be conducted by dental specialists, and documentation errors can be more easily corrected.
