Here are four Medicaid updates Becker’s has reported on since July:
1. A new report from the American Dental Association’s Council on Advocacy for Access and Prevention found that only seven states are meeting network adequacy standards for Medicaid.
2. Low reimbursements under Maine’s Medicaid program are causing children to wait months for dental care.
3. U.S. Rep Jennifer McClellan visited a nonprofit dental clinic in Virginia to discuss the impact of Medicaid cuts on patient care.
4. Kansas lawmakers invested $10 million in the state’s Medicaid dental program to encourage more dentists to participate.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place September 14-15 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
