ACS Expands National Dental Outreach Program to Dallas
Date:3/27/2008

ening will be their first dental check-up. In fact, the American Dental Association (ADA) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) state that children from low-income families are less likely to see a dentist regularly, and suffer twice as many dental cavities as their peers. In addition, pain and suffering due to untreated disease lead to problems in eating, speaking and paying attention in school. The ADA and the AAP also note that 51 million school hours are lost each year as a result of dental-related problems.

Along with Texas, the initiative benefits children in Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Mississippi, Tennessee, and the District of Columbia.

ACS' approximately 7,000 employees in Texas provide services to commercial and government clients. These include city, county, and state government, as well as businesses in the financial services, healthcare, and other industries. ACS provides Medicaid claims processing, operations support, and primary care case management program administration for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission through the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership.
