“The state of Florida sits in the direct path of hurricanes, taking the brunt of these assaults by Mother Nature on our shores,” said DentaQuest President Steve Pollock. “While local teams are well-prepared from experience, it makes the impact no less devastating to the people and families affected. DentaQuest is pleased to support the Florida Disaster Fund and other local organizations making a difference for the thousands of Floridians dealing with the aftermath.”

DentaQuest provides government dental benefits administration in the state and is working with Medicaid enrollees and dentists to help those affected by the storm get the support they need.

“Health and safety always come first during an emergency weather impact,” continued Pollock. “But when the rain stops and the winds slow down, it takes significant resources to rebuild. Our support is steadfast, and we hope others join us in enabling a quick recovery.”
