An Act to provide equal and fair access to affordable dental care for all patients

This bill amends Massachusetts law to allow dentists to set their own fees without restrictions from other dental insurance plans or existing contracts. It specifically prohibits dental insurance companies from charging fees or providing reimbursements based on what a dentist charges under a different insurance policy, MassHealth, or a direct patient contract. The primary goal is to increase fair competition among dental providers and ensure patients have access to affordable care by preventing insurers from penalizing dentists for pricing differences.
