What We Do
The Child Health unit administers programs related to children’s preventive health and treatment services. We work collaboratively with other state agencies to ensure Medicaid children’s access to quality health care and health programs. Our goal is to identify health problems early and provide appropriate treatment to allow children to be as healthy as possible.
Programs
Dental Periodicity Schedule
The Oklahoma Health Care Authority Dental Advisory Committee on Periodicity (DACP) intends this guideline to help practitioners make clinical decisions concerning preventive oral health care for infants, children, and adolescents. Because each child is unique, these recommendations are designed for the care of children who have no contributory medical conditions and who are developing normally. These recommendations will need to be modified for children with special health care needs or if disease or trauma manifests variations from the normal. The AAPD and DACP emphasizes the importance of very early professional intervention and the continuity of care based on the individualized needs of the child.
