Low-income, uninsured patients find a dental home in DALCO
 As a result of a united effort among the Lancaster County Dental Society, local dentists, and Lancaster LG Health, low-income, uninsured patients can now find a dental home through Dental Access Lancaster County (DALCO). Beginning Aug. 1, Dental Health Network, which only treated patients with urgent cases, was transitioned to DALCO, where ongoing preventive and restorative dental care is provided to individuals.
In addition to establishing a database of about 100 local dental providers, LG Health provides a virtual network through its Wellness Center office at the Suburban Outpatient Pavilion where patients call to enroll in the program.
Patients will pay a small co-pay for each visit based on their income.
