Our state’s current Medicaid reimbursement rates are already far lower than those of commercial plans and often do not even cover the actual costs to provide care. This funding is necessary to continue providing care to the almost 2 million Washington residents relying on dental Medicaid.
With just a few clicks, you can send a message that describes how cuts would affect Washington’s most vulnerable dental patients and urges legislators to maintain this critical funding.
Thank you for your ongoing engagement with legislators on issues impacting dentists and patients.
