Medicaid recipients could receive dental care under a measure that was approved by the Delaware Senate yesterday.
Nearly 117-thousand people would be covered with a price tag of $7.4 million.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that there would be a $10 co-pay for up to $1-thousand per year in dental care.
Another $15-hundred would be allowed for emergency dental care.
The paper reports that state Senator Colin Bonini (R-Dover South) questioned whether the state could afford the measure given the current revenue projections.
Bonini said he also believes that Medicaid is unsustainable.
