Medicare Medically Necessary Dental Care Act of 2023

This bill would expand Medicare Part B coverage to include dental services that are medically necessary due to specific serious conditions, such as head/neck cancer, lymphoma, leukemia, organ transplants, or prosthetic heart valve replacements. It directly affects Medicare beneficiaries with these conditions who require dental care as part of their treatment for those medical issues. The law specifies that covered dental services must be provided within one year of diagnosis or related medical treatment and must directly impact the management of the underlying condition. This change amends Medicare's long-standing exclusion of dental care, allowing coverage only for services tied to these specific health risks.
