Bill overview
This bill establishes a study committee to evaluate the feasibility and potential impact of expanding dental coverage for adults within the Arizona Medicaid program. The committee will analyze costs, long-term financial implications, and health outcomes associated with including comprehensive dental services, rather than just emergency care and extractions. It will also explore financing options, best practices from other states, and recommend changes to improve access and integration within the healthcare system.
