Dental reimbursement pilot project reporting requirement
Under current law, DHS must distribute moneys under a dental reimbursement pilot project to increase the reimbursement rate for pediatric dental care and adult emergency dental services provided under the Medical Assistance program in Brown, Marathon, Polk, and Racine Counties and, if certain requirements are met, in any other county, as determined by DHS, where Medical Assistance recipients have the greatest need for pediatric dental care and adult emergency dental services. In addition, current law requires DHS to submit a biennial report on the pilot project to the chief clerk of each house of the legislature, each standing committee of the legislature with jurisdiction over health or public benefits, and JCF. This bill repeals the reporting requirement.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1. 49.45 (24k) (c) of the statutes is repealed.
(end)
