AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) — The Maine Legislature is taking up for a third consecutive year a proposal to expand preventive dental coverage to about 70,000 adults under MaineCare.
Maine is one of 10 states that provide only emergency care, but that would change with under the proposal to add preventive services to the state’s version of Medicaid. A public hearing was held on Monday before the Legislature’s Health and Human Services Committee.
“The way that MaineCare delivers oral health to adults is irrational, financially wasteful and promotes low-quality results,” House Speaker Ryan Fecteau said during Monday during a news conference.
