Changes Coming in Florida Medicaid

The Florida Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC) program is changing beginning February 1, 2025.  Dental procedures requiring anesthesia will be moved from their current medical coverage to coverage by dental plans.

Medicaid believes that this will provide greater reimbursement value and improved claim processing times for providers.  ASCs wishing to provide procedures under Medicaid Dental will have two plans available to contract: DentaQuest and LIBERTY. 

 Here is a new dental program highlight sheet.  You may also find the following links helpful:
