In today’s changing world of health care and health systems, health deliv- ery models are rapidly evolving to keep pace with trends. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has made it possible for millions of Americans to access health care that prior to the enactment of the legislation was out of reach for many. The change means that health-care providers, including dental professonals, are having to find new ways to meet the demand. The convention’s President’s Sympo- sium, “Trends in dentistry: The future is now — a call to action,” will address chal- lenges and concerns of patients and pro- viders in vulnerable communities, and it will provide insights into practical, ac- tionable and innovative practice delivery models of the future. Subject matter experts will provide methods to optimize accessability to and delivery of comprehensive patient care to achieve health equity, improve total patient health, increase productivity and grow small businesses in underserved communities. Attendees will learn how to understand and navigate dental Medicaid programs, advocate for policy improvements and influence laws that directly impact vul- nerable populations and the providers who care for them. The meeting also will provide a wide variety of scientific sessions of interest to all members of the dental team. More information is available online, at www.ndaonline.org.
