You said Obamacare does not require it at all. (When I asked why Obamacare requires single adults to purchase pediatric dental coverage, you said, "It does not.") You said states had the choice - they do not. Obamacare requires it as one of the ten EHBs, as I told you. They only choices the states have is the definition of the baseline plan and whether pediatric dental is bundled into it or must be purchased instead as a standalone plan. Last post on this with you...directly from Healthcare.gov...ok now? The plan you had was not cancelled because it lacked pediatric dental coverage...it is far more likely that it was cancelled because it lacked preventive care outside the deductible...which, if you have an exchange plan or your don't, is now included. Thank you ACA. Stop reading the garbage you read. healthcare.gov Adult and child dental insurance in the MarketplaceUnder the health care law, dental insurance is treated differently for adults and children 18 and under. Dental coverage for children is an essential health benefit. This means if you’re getting health coverage for someone 18 or younger, dental coverage must be available for your child as part of a health plan or as a stand-alone plan. Note: While dental coverage for children must be available to you, you don’t have to buy it. Dental coverage is not an essential health benefit for adults. Insurers don’t have to offer adult dental coverage.
