Bill Summary

Relative to dental service quotes. Public Health.

AI Summary

This bill requires dental service providers to provide a quote of the costs associated with any dental services to a patient or prospective patient prior to performing those services, unless the patient or prospective patient waives this requirement for a continued course of treatment. If a dental service provider completes services without providing a quote, the patient may file a complaint with the Board of Registration in Dentistry. The Board will then investigate whether the completed services were medically necessary, and if they find the services were not necessary, they will report the violation to the Attorney General for further action.
