Bill Summary

For legislation relative to public health dental hygienists. Public Health.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 51 of Chapter 112 of the General Laws, which pertains to public health dental hygienists, by removing a restriction that prevented them from seeking reimbursement from any insurance or third-party payor other than Medicaid, except where federal Medicaid law required it. This change, in essence, allows public health dental hygienists to pursue payment from sources beyond just Medicaid, potentially expanding their ability to receive compensation for services rendered.
