Oral Health Value-Based Care: An Introduction and Call to Action for CHCs

This webinar is presented by the DentaQuest Partnership for Oral Health Advancement and the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC)

In August, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) and the DentaQuest Partnership for Oral Health Advancement jointly released a white paper which reflects how well-positioned Community Health Centers (CHCs) are to advance value in integrated care approaches inclusive of oral health, even with the challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic. This webinar is a discussion about the move to value, and how community health centers are working towards positive whole health outcomes.

Learning Objectives:

• Explore the inherent characteristics and infrastructural elements of CHCs that support value-based care (VBC) in oral health.
• Recognize how CHCs have been supporting dental care access and whole-person health care delivery and interprofessional workforce modeling.
• Identify the connection to the overall move to value in CHCs.
• Define opportunities to extend, expand, and replicate CHC successes.
