The Pennsylvania Dental Association Political Action Committee (PADPAC) is your voice in the political arena helping to guard your interests pertaining to insurance regulations, managed care reform, scope of practice, patient care and preventive measures, such as water fluoridation or smoking bans. PADPAC raises funds to support legislators who consider dentistry’s views when voting on health- related issues and fight for a quality dental care system in the state. Visit www.padental.org/padpac for more information.
Both the dental profession and patients benefit from PDA’s influence with members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly and the Governor’s Administration through its contract with an experienced and distinguished lobbying firm.
PDA’s Government Relations Advisory Group monitors and reports on bills introduced in the General Assembly and their movement through committee to the House and Senate floors. PDA also actively maintains working relationships with state agencies such as the departments of Health, Human Services, Insurance and Environmental Protection.
PDA also monitors the State Board of Dentistry and advocates on members’ behalf as the state board promulgates regulations that affect both the dental practice and patients. Our political grassroots network of member dentists and a political action committee is tasked with developing and maintaining a positive rapport with the General Assembly and Congress at the federal level.
