Hypothetical situation: A low income parent has a child who suddenly has a toothache. What does the parent do who is covered by ObamaCare?
Must the parent pay for the dentist visit out of his own pocket, or will ObamaCare pay for the emergency visit to the dentist? Thanks.
Low income remains covered by MedicAid, which has dental coverage for kids.
Medicaid does cover dental bills for children - both routine visits and emergency care. So, one could assume that those who qualify for subsidized care and who are added to a state’s Medicaid roles, will have dental coverage for their children.
