Relative to public health dental hygienists. Health Care Financing.

AI Summary

This bill aims to address the sustainability of public health dental hygienists by modifying the existing law to allow them to seek reimbursement from insurance or third-party payers, beyond just Medicaid. Previously, the law restricted public health dental hygienists from seeking reimbursement from other sources, except as required by federal Medicaid law. This change is intended to provide public health dental hygienists with more financial flexibility and support the sustainability of their services.
