The New York experience.

Under the Medicaid program, the provision of dental services is optional; presently 45 states cover some type of dental care for Medicaid recipients. This article reviews the 22-year history of the Medicaid dental program in New York, and compares that program to those in other states. Finally, the implications of the New York plan's latest innovation is discussed: requiring all residential health care facilities to provide dental services to all patients.
