As reported earlier, the Arkansas State Dental Association has begun negotiations with the Arkansas department of human services for a significant fee increase for Medicaid providers. The last published increase occurred 15 years ago and ASDA promises a strong and definitive push to save the current program. An earlier survey indicated that 84% of Medicaid providers would stop seeing Medicaid patients if these are not adjusted within three years.
