Possible Scenarios for Medicare Dental Expansion




          • House proposal remains unchanged and is enacted as drafted



          • Medicare dental expansion dropped from package due to cost

              and complexity


               • Likely would resurface as a Reconciliation priority again next

                    year



          • Senate puts forward completely different proposal


               • Skinny benefit

               • Means-tested benefit


               • Medicare dental benefit offered under separate program (ex.

                    Part E)
