High Level Dental Performance Measures
Return to Dental Data Reports Page
The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) publishes Fee For Service (FFS) and Dental Managed Care (DMC) performance measures quarterly on a rolling 12 month basis. This methodology enables the reports to capture data by State Fiscal Year (SFY), Federal Fiscal Year (FFY), and Calendar Year (CY).
This report gives a high level overview of the top three dental performance measures: Annual Dental Visit, Use of Preventive Services, and Use of Sealants. Beginning SFY 2015-16, each measure is comprised of beneficiaries with 90-days continuous eligibility. Medi-Cal populations were aggregated as Geographic Managed Care (GMC), Prepaid Health Plans (PHP), DMC, FFS and Total in age groups children 0-20, 1-20 and adults 21+.
