Bill > HB2338

This bill amends Section 36-2907 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which relates to the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS). The key provisions of the bill are: 1. It adds "preventive dental care" to the list of covered dental services for AHCCCS members who are at least 21 years of age, in addition to the existing coverage for emergency dental care and extractions. 2. It specifies that monies from the Hospital Assessment Fund cannot be used to provide chiropractic services, diabetes outpatient self-management training services, or preventive dental care under AHCCCS. The bill aims to expand the preventive dental care coverage provided through AHCCCS, the state's Medicaid program, while also clarifying the funding sources that can be used for certain services.
