LINCOLN, Neb. – The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Division of Medicaid and Long-Term Care (MLTC) is seeking a professional in the dental field to fill an open position in the Medicaid Advisory Committee (MAC).

The MAC advises the Medicaid agency on overall policy development and program improvements. The committee has a broad focus and includes a diverse range of stakeholders, including healthcare providers, community organizations, advocates and policy experts.
