This bill requires South Dakota's Department of Social Services to create and publish an official reimbursement schedule that sets payment rates for dental services provided to Medicaid patients. The department must base these payment rates on what dentists typically charge for services in South Dakota and can get help from outside experts to determine those standard fees. The reimbursement schedule will be established through state administrative rules and adjusted annually.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
