Upcoming Events

IDA Day on the Hill

Thursday, January 29, 2025
Beginning at 9:00 AM at the Iowa StateHouse, Des Moines
The third annual IDA Day on the Hill is a great opportunity to join your fellow dentists and students from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry as we advocate for increased dental Medicaid rates, push for solutions to dental staffing issues, and encourage legislators to support further dental insurance reforms that benefit providers and patients.
Be a part of an event that will have a direct impact on the practice of dentistry in Iowa. If you are interested in attending this year’s IDA Day on the Hill or want to learn more about the event, contact IDA Government Affairs Director, Josh Carpenter.
