This section appears in one version only, so there is nothing to compare yet.
Not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act, the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission shall submit to Congress a report on issues related to adult oral health across the 50 States, tribes, and the territories, including— (1) the availability of adult oral health coverage, and enrollment in such coverage; (2) a survey of adult oral health status among low-income women of childbearing age; (3) barriers to accessing adult oral health care, including for racially diverse, ethnically diverse, and limited English-proficient communities; (4) innovations and potential solutions to problems of access (including disparities in access) to adult oral health care, including innovations that would expand access to such care beyond dental offices; and (5) the impact of the amendments made by section 2 of this Act and recommendations for improving reimbursement rates for providers of dental and oral health services under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.).
