Bill > H1989

This bill amends Section 51 of Chapter 112 of the General Laws, which pertains to public health dental hygienists. Specifically, it removes a restriction that prevented public health dental hygienists from seeking reimbursement from any insurance or third-party payer, except as required by federal Medicaid law. This change essentially allows public health dental hygienists to pursue reimbursement from a broader range of sources beyond just Medicaid, potentially increasing their ability to fund their services.
