Dental Benefits Collaborative Update

“If you did not get a chance to attend the last Dental Benefits Collaborative meeting and if you would like to listen to a recording, please dial 888-203-1112 and enter replay code 190464146.  An updated copy of the Adult Dental Benefit Coverage Standard and an updated version of the Listening Log is posted on the Benefits Collaborative Meeting Schedule.

Next Steps:  The Dental Policy Team will take the complete Adult Dental Rule (which will include those services that require prior authorization and will be available July 1st, 2014) to the Medical Services Board (MSB) for initial approval on March 14, 2014.  Prior to MSB Hearings there is always a Public Rule Review Meeting (PRRM), which for the Adult Dental Rule will be held Monday, February 24th at 9am in the 1st Floor Conference Room of 225 E 16th Ave.  If initially approved, the Department will take the Adult Dental Rule back to the MSB for final adoption on April 11, 2014.  The Department tentatively plans to take the Children’s Dental Rule to MSB for initial approval on April 11, 2014.”  [Source: HCPF]
