HAVE YOU SUBMITTED YOUR SLIP YET?

Your voice matters! Oral health is a critical component of overall health and is currently excluded from Medicare. More than 60 million people rely on the Medicare program – and only about one-third of them have any coverage for oral health care.

Tell Congress to support H.R. 4311!

UPCOMING SURVEY!
Our main goals of the organization are increasing membership and membership engagement. IDHA will be sending out a survey soon to its members looking for direction for the future of our organization within the state. The goals of the survey are as follows:

  • Gather information on how to better serve our members
  • What are your likes/dislikes regarding the organization
  • Gather ideas on how to increase membership engagement

We sincerely thank you all for your membership and we want to continue to serve our members and protect our profession! Without our members, we don't have a voice!
