    HHS Data Shows Strong Demand for Adult Dental Coverage in the Marketplaces

    DALLAS -- Some 96 percent of enrollees in stand-alone dental plans (SADPs) are adults 18 to 64 according to data released by HHS last week for states where Marketplaces are operated by the Federally-facilitated Marketplace or FFM.  In those states, 21.8 percent of all enrollees (421,941) selected a SADP in addition to their medical plan. Some 18,764 or 4 percent of the enrollees in SADPs were in the 0-17 age group that would be covered by the new pediatric dental benefit created by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) as part of the Essential Health Benefit (EHB) Package.
