Show Notes
Dr. Todd Gray is a pediatric dentist and the Chief Dental Officer at Dentaquest. Dentaquest is the largest Medicaid managed care provider in the country, and is responsible for delivering Medicaid dental services to millions of children in the United States.
Dr. Gray spent 15 years in private practice as a pediatric dentist in the state of Nevada before making a career shift and working his way up in the world of dental insurance and Medicaid. We met at AAPD in Las Vegas and immediately decided that we had to do a podcast together.
I was so excited to have Dr. Gray on since he has the unique perspective of being both a practicing pediatric dentist, but also knows the inner-workings of how Medicaid is administered. We have a great discussion where he busts common Medicaid misconceptions, along with sharing what he's learned about how Medicaid plans work.
The goal of our conversation was to change the narrative of Medicaid being a big faceless monster, and to give providers tips on how to make Medicaid work in their office.
Dr. Gray is also the co-founder of Smiyl, a dental supply company that gives crazy good deals on prophy supplies to pediatric dentists. I want listeners to support our fellow pediatric dentists, so please check them out at www.smiyl.com.
