Big win for New York dentistry! The NYSDA-supported network leasing bill has officially passed the New York State Assembly with unanimous support. The legislation helps increase transparency and protections for dentists related to third-party network contracts and leased dental networks. The Senate companion bill, S.7919 (Skoufis), is currently in the Senate Insurance Committee. NYSDA will continue advocating for this important legislation on behalf of New York dentists.
