Story

Please tell us how you, your family or your community has benefited from Medicaid coverage for dental care, vision care, and transportation assistance: People get the care they need. Dental and vision are as important as medical care. Not everyone can afford a vehicle or have someone they can depend on to take them to appointments so they can get the care they need.

Please tell us how eliminating these benefits would affect you, your family, or your community: We would see more people in emergency rooms getting treatment, causing overcrowded ERÍs, longer wait times. Possibly people losing jobs because of having to miss work to take people to doctors appointments.
