Join the Missouri Coalition for Oral Health for a webinar on Tuesday, August 26 at 7AM PDT. They will share how they worked with partners to connect with dental providers and assist with navigating processes to increase Medicaid participation.
Since the Medicaid Dental Rate increased in 2022, the Missouri Coalition for Oral Health has been working in collaboration with the Missouri Dental Association and MO HealthNet. The improved Medicaid rates have been significant, but the rates alone were not enough to increase dental provider participation in Medicaid. During this webinar, attendees will learn about the MCOH Model and steps that were taken to connect with dental providers, learn about existing barriers, and assist with navigating Medicaid processes. MO HealthNet will also share the data around the progress that has been made as a result of this work.
Learning Objectives:
- Attendees will learn about the MCOH Model.
- Attendees will see the recent data on the impact this work has had on Medicaid.
- Attendees will understand the barriers, outside of the rates, that have impacted dental providers' decision to accept Medicaid.
