“We’re very excited to support UCLA’s effort and have enlisted our network of 150 providers to donate through the program,” said Mark Adams, DDS, vice president of clinical affairs for ClearChoice Management Services.
UCLA is acting as a supply distribution center for hospitals around the U.S. The university is also repurposing digital printers to produce PPE. ClearChoice has coordinated a donation of surplus PPE from its network and is also using digital printers for supply production.
In March, ClearChoice realigned services in all 63 of its centers to focus on urgent dental needs and reduce the number of unnecessary emergency room visits to hospitals during the pandemic.
