The Republican-American No bite to Husky coverage

The Republican-American No bite to Husky coverage:

"Many of the state's children aren't getting the dental care they need because most dentists won't treat kids on the HUSKY plan. And, advocates say, the 16 community health clinics statewide can't serve all of the 350,000 kids on the state's Medicaid plan, better known as HUSKY. Of the 2,500 dentists in the state, only about 100 will accept children on the HUSKY program because reimbursement rates are so low."
