Sacramento, CA, June 13, 2025 - Western Dental, the state’s largest Medi-Cal Dental provider, issued the following statement following the legislature’s passage of the 2025-2026 state budget:
“Thank you to the Legislature for protecting Medi-Cal Dental in this year’s budget. In order to ensure that millions of patients have continued access to care, we must preserve the Prop 56 funding that was approved by voters and intended to support Medi-Cal Dental going forward.
