The LSUHSC School of
Dentistry (LSUSD)
Department of Dental
Health Resources,
In partnership with
the Louisiana Department
of Health and Hospitals
(DHH), has three
ongoing initiatives
to improve the oral
health of all Louisiana
citizens.
Beginning in the early
1980s, DHH turned
to LSUSD for advice
and assistance in
operating the state's
Dental Medicaid Program.
Faculty members contributed
their expertise in
developing the benefits
and guidelines of
the dental care offered
to eligible recipients.
Over the years this
relationship has
matured into a contract
under which Dental
Health Resources'
dental consultants
oversee Medicaid
prior approvals and
contribute to the
policy decisions
and oversight of
the Dental Medicaid
program that today
serves nearly 200,000
of the over 500,000
eligible recipients
annually.
