ORS 414.430 Access to dental care for pregnant medical assistance recipients; rules

The Oregon Health Authority shall prescribe by rule appropriate time frames within which a pregnant medical assistance recipient whose medical assistance is reimbursed on a fee-for-service basis and who needs general or specialty dental care must have the opportunity to be seen, or referred for, and provided:

Emergency dental services;

Urgent dental services;

Routine dental services; and

An initial dental screening or examination.

The time frames prescribed by the authority for recipients whose medical assistance is reimbursed on a fee-for-service basis shall be the same as or shorter than the time frames for pregnant recipients enrolled in coordinated care organizations who receive dental services from dental subcontractors.
