Public Notice
Health & Social Services
(Medical Assistance Reimbursement of Providers of Dental Services)
The State of Wisconsin reimburses providers for dental services provided to Medical Assistance recipients. This is done under the authority of Title XIX of the Federal Social Security Act and ss. 49.43 to 49.47, Wisconsin Statutes. This program, administered by the State's Department of Health and Social Services, is called Medical Assistance (MA) or Medicaid. Federal statutes and regulations require that a state plan be developed that provides the methods and standards for reimbursement of covered services. A plan that describes the reimbursement system for the services (methods and standards for reimbursement) is now in effect.
The Department may restore Medical Assistance coverage for removable and fixed prosthodontic services effective on or after March
1, 1996. The proposed change could be modified if necessary to reflect the final statutory language.
The estimated net effect of this change in payment on annual expenditures of the Wisconsin Medical Assistance Program is to increase spending by $3,230,000 all funds ($1,928,500 federal financial participation and $1,301,500 general purpose revenue) for state fiscal year 1995-1996 and by $4,371,200 all funds ($2,608,300 federal financial participation and $1,762,900 general purpose revenue) for state fiscal year 1996-1997.
