CDPHE Releases Requests for Application for the Old Age Pension Dental Program

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Oral Health Unit has released a Request for Applications (RFA) for the Old Age Pension Dental Program for Fiscal Year 2012-2013. This program supports dental assistance for qualified low-income seniors.

Oral Health will be airing an informational webinar at noon on Sept. 24 in which oral health experts will review and explain the RFA.  Please submit any questions or comments you would like addressed during the webinar to Jean McMains. There also will be time at the end of the webinar to address additional questions or concerns. Information about accessing the webinar will be posted to the CDPHE Oral Health Unit webpage soon. We will record and archive the webinar for those who cannot attend the live event.

We will continue to take questions regarding the RFA until Sept. 25 and post responses by Sept. 27. The deadline for the RFA to be completed and returned to the Oral Health Unit at CDPHE is 4 p.m. Oct.15. The RFA application, guidelines and other information is posted on the Oral Health Unit site.
