Book excerpt: Children's access to Medicaid dental services is a long-standing concern. The tragic case of a 12-year-old boy who died from an untreated infected tooth that led to a fatal brain infection renewed attention to this issue. He was enrolled in Medicaid--a joint federal and state program that provides health care coverage, including dental care, for 30 million low-income children--but, like many children in Medicaid, he experienced difficulty finding a dentist who would treat him. At the federal level, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), oversees Medicaid. In this report, Government Accountability Office (GAO) examined: (1) state strategies to monitor and improve access to dental care for children in Medicaid; and (2) CMS actions since 2007 to improve oversight of Medicaid dental services for children. GAO surveyed all state Medicaid programs and interviewed state and federal officials, and dental researchers and associations. GAO recommends that CMS develop a plan to review dental services in states with low utilization rates, ensure that states found to have inadequate managed care provider networks strengthen their networks, develop additional guidance, and identify ways to improve sharing of promising practices among states. CMS generally concurred with GAO's recommendations. Seven appendixes are included: (1) Methods Used by State Medicaid Programs to Monitor the Statewide Provision of Dental Care to Children; (2) Statewide Utilization Goals for the Provision of Dental Care to Children in State Medicaid Programs; (3) Access Standards Set by the 21 States That Provide Dental Services through Managed Care Organizations (MCOs); (4) Extent to Which Managed Care Organizations (MCO) Meet State Standards and State Verification of MCO Networks; (5) CMS Promising Practices and State Reported Best Practices; (6) Comments from the Department of Health and Human Services; and (7) GAO Contact and Staff Acknowledgments. (Contains 8 tables, 1 figure and 37 footnotes.).

Book excerpt: In recent years, concerns have been raised about the adequacy of dental care for low-income children. Attention to this subject became more acute due to the widely publicized case of Deamonte Driver, a 12-year-old boy who died as a result of an untreated infected tooth that led to a fatal brain infection. Deamonte had health coverage through Medicaid, a joint fed. and state program that provides health care coverage, incl. dental care, for millions of low-income children. He had extensive dental disease and his family was unable to find a dentist to treat him. This report examines the extent to which children in Medicaid experience dental disease, the extent to which they receive dental care, and how these conditions have changed over time.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Medicaid Policy Reform on Dental Utilization Rates for Children by : Matthew. A. Winheim

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Regular access to dental services is a well-known factor in the oral health and development of children.1 As such, the United States federal government mandates each state to include dental services for children enrolled in Medicaid through the age of 21. Despite this mandate, the utilization rate of dental services among Medicaid enrolled children has remained remarkably low.2 In July 2005, Virginia implemented a sweeping Medicaid policy reform titled "Smiles for Children" specifically aiming to increase Medicaid pediatric dental utilization rates. The purpose of this study aims to assess the effect of this 2005 policy reform on the utilization of dental services by children enrolled in Medicaid. Objective: The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of the 2005 Virginia Smiles for Children Medicaid policy reform on the utilization of dental services among Medicaid enrolled children. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of children (pre-reform n=559,820, post-reform n=690,538) enrolled in Virginia Medicaid from 2002 through 2008. Descriptive statistics and repeated measures multivariate logistic regressions were used to determine the relationship between enrollment (Pre- and Post-policy reform) and the utilization of dental services (1+ Dental Visits vs. No Dental Visits). Results: Descriptive analysis of the cohort found that 34% of pre-reform children had a dental visit while 44% of post-reform children. The logistic regression models revealed that children in the post reform period were 1.39 as likely to have had a dental visit. Stratifying for enrollment length reveals that as the length of exposure time to the post-reform policy increases, the odds of having a dental visit also increase as compared to the pre-reform period: for 31-36 months of enrollment the odds increase 1.54 times. Conclusions: Medicaid policy reform can significantly improve access to dental services for children and can therefore play an important role in promoting public health.
