PCC: 4 barriers to oral health care
1. The uninsured rate for dental
insurance is four times higher than the uninsured rate for medical
insurance.
2. Of the 2.4 million emergency department visits for a
dental problem annually, up to 70% are by uninsured and publicly insured
adults. Many of these are preventable.
3. Traditional Medicare, with 37 million beneficiaries,
offers no dental coverage.
4. Dental coverage for low-income adults on Medicaid
depends on where they live. 11 states do not provide dental benefits; 35
states limit coverage; and 19 states require a copay.
