Implemented May 1, 2014 100,000+ low-income adults not eligible for Medicaid Comprehensive dental benefits Unique program design based on earned benefits and personal responsibility The only earned benefits program of its type in the nation

Designed to address concerns about Medicaid Administered by Private Insurance (Delta Dental) Higher reimbursement rates Promotes personal responsibility by patients Incentives to patients: more benefits if they return for preventive visits Incentives for dentists: bonus paid out based on percent of patients receiving oral health risk assessment

Previsor online oral health risk assessment Caries risk Periodontal risk Oral cancer risk Dentists get paid to do risk assessment Eligible for additional bonus payment Dentists get paid to provide oral health education

Three tiers of benefits Patients earn next tier of benefits by returning for a recall within 6-12 months No Co-Pay No Deductible No Annual Maximum

Challenge How to train and monitor 300+ providers regarding the unique aspects of the Dental Wellness Plan program Eligibility and tiers of treatment Documentation requirements

Restorations covered If caries extends > 50% of the way to the pulp Written and radiographic/photographic documentation and attachments required Dentures and interim partials covered If provider documents basic human functions that are being restored Root canals covered If comprehensive exam has been done by general dentist

If patient starts treatment before enrolled in Dental Wellness Plan (i.e. cast partial denture) Then becomes enrolled in Dental Wellness Plan prior to insertion We cannot legally bill the patient for the partial denture, and the Dental Wellness Plan will not pay because it is a third tier benefit that the patient has not yet earned

Patients cannot pay out of pocket for treatment that is covered in another tier Restorations of teeth when caries is not encroaching on pulp Can be treated at NC in D2 Operative Patients can pay out of pocket for nevercovered services Bleaching 3 month prophy

Patient can pay out-of-pocket Bleaching Cosmetic Dentistry Replacement of unsightly restorations Diastema closure Implants Be sure to document and inform There is a consent form for never covered benefits

Provider Training (March-April 2014) Mandatory provider training Faculty, Residents, Students, Hygienists, Assistants, Front line staff

Primary education about dental wellness plan benefits occurs at comprehensive exam appointment by provider
