Dental care for uninsured children across Utah would receive dedicated state funding under this bill, which creates a new restricted account called the Uninsured Children Dental Care Restricted Account. Starting July 1, 2026, the state would transfer $5 million annually from the General Fund into this account, and those funds would go to the University of Utah School of Dentistry's Oral Health Assistance Program to provide dental care for uninsured children in every county. Money appropriated for the 2027-28 fiscal year would carry over without expiring, but starting in the 2028-29 fiscal year, any account balance above $200,000 would revert back to the General Fund at year's end. The account could also receive private donations and interest earnings in addition to legislative appropriations.
