Missouri Dental Medicaid
Providing Stability for Practices and Patients Across the State
Why MO Dentists Accept Medicaid
1. Reliable Income
MO Medicaid provides reimbursements on a regular schedule. Plus, providers can claim retroactive reimbursements following rate increases and for Medicaid patients served prior to credentialing approval.
2. High Demand
1 in 8 Missourians depend on Medicaid to access dental care, and rural communities in particular lack local providers. If you offer Medicaid, patients will come.
3. Efficient Operations
MO HealthNet and Managed Care plans all provide transparent resources, direct communication, and standardized processes to minimize your administrative burden.
