NOW ASK YOUR SENATOR: WHY AREN’T DENTAL SERVICES COVERED BY MEDICARE?
November 13, 2022 -Durt Fibo
The U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services was established in 1965. In the intervening 57 years since, little to no changes have been made to offer dental coverage. The original excuse was that dental work wasn’t considered important enough to be covered due to a lack of information (!). It is now 2022. Politicians have their own special health coverage (known as WEDON’TCARE), and the industry’s organizations, such as the American Dental Association and America’s Health Insurance Plans will not stop lobbying against dental coverage through Medicare.
