AB 1670: Medi-Cal: dental care.
What AB 1670 does, verified May 16, 2026
This bill requires that Medi-Cal providers be paid additional compensation for certain dental care services that require significant extra time, attention, or personnel to deliver safely. This additional payment is limited to three times in a 12-month period. The goal is to ensure that providers can adequately care for patients with complex conditions, without being penalized for the extra time and resources required.
