The KDA leadership recently met with the Social Health Authority (SHA) to advocate for the dental profession and refine oral health delivery within the national health framework.
Our discussions centered on several critical areas:
• Accessibility: Addressing gaps and lack of clarity in dental service availability.
• Benefit Packages: Evaluating the adequacy of benefits, specifically the POMSF package.
• Financials: Seeking predictable tariffs and streamlined reimbursement processes.
• Operations: Resolving challenges in provider onboarding, contracting, and claims management.
• Strategic Alignment: Ensuring the scope of covered services aligns with UHC and primary healthcare goals.
We have agreed on clear action points and scheduled follow-up sessions. Please be assured that your interests are being actively represented as we work to protect the profession and improve national oral health standards.
