AHCCCS; dental care; pregnant women
HB 2958 expands dental coverage under Arizona's Medicaid program (AHCCCS) to include comprehensive dental care for pregnant women aged 21 and older, including extractions, without the annual $1,000 spending limit that applies to non-pregnant adults. This change ensures pregnant women enrolled in AHCCCS can access full dental treatment as part of prenatal care, removing prior financial restrictions. The bill directly affects pregnant women in the Medicaid program by adding this specific benefit to existing coverage. It does not alter dental coverage for non-pregnant adults or other program provisions.
