Heartland Alliance Health’s Oral Health Forum (HAH/OHF) will focus its efforts on improving the oral health of medically underserved children and older adults. HAH/OHF will utilize its case management program to address the oral health care coordination for Chicago Public School students identified as having high rates with urgent dental needs. The case management program includes comprehensive oral health education, case management, and family support services for children. HAH/OHF will connect with long-term and community living facilities for older adults to provide oral health outreach services that connect seniors to care; improving dental outcomes for low-income and medically disadvantaged older adults through coordinated access to care services. The program will provide older adults with dental hygiene products, oral health education materials, virtual consultations with a provider as needed, and provide dental care vouchers for low-income, uninsured seniors according to need.
