Story

Please tell us how you, your family or your community has benefited from Medicaid coverage for dental care, vision care, and transportation assistance: I have severe dental problems. It was already bad enough that only 2 oral surgeons in Western Ky would accept extended Medicaid. Now we have none. I need help really bad. My mouth is infected all the time. Please help us we have got to have good Dentist and Oral Surgeons. PLEASE. I will probably end up dying over teeth and gum problems.

Please tell us how eliminating these benefits would affect you, your family, or your community: It’s sad already that we don’t even have a dentist anymore in Trigg County that will accept extended Medicaid. The only one who would died recently. We need more oral surgeons and more dentist to help people.
