CONCORD – Today, the Senate Health and Human Services Committee unanimously voted Ought to Pass with Amendment on SB 422, Senator Cindy Rosenwald’s (D-Nashua) bill to extend a dental benefit to adults in the Medicaid program.

“In my 18 years in the legislature, creating an adult Medicaid dental benefit has always been a bipartisan goal. SB 422 will help adults enrolled in Medicaid to gain critical access to dental care. This expansion will improve the health of the adult Medicaid population, save money upstream on other health treatments, and improve the employability and financial mobility for those enrolled in the program.
