Support Medically Necessary Oral Health Care in Medicare

January 30, 2020

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

For the past few years, a coalition of beneficiary advocates, disease organizations, industry groups,  oral health and medical health professionals has been advocating for medically necessary oral health care to be covered by Medicare, as authorized under current law.  The Coalition recently launched a web-based platform for members of the public to express their support and urge the Administration to provide critical coverage for Medicare beneficiaries for medically necessary oral health care.  Please consider participating and spreading the word. The platform is: https://freeroots.com/campaign/make-medicare-better.
