The American Dental Hygienists’ Association (ADHA) and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) shared similar beliefs that the potential of dental therapy education programs deserved quickly adopted, reasonable accreditation standards in documents filed with the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) within the last week.
CODA is scheduled to meet on Feb. 6, 2015, in Chicago, where it is expected the commission will have further deliberations on the proposed standards for dental therapy education programs. CODA had asked interested organizations to provide comments prior to Dec. 1, 2014.
The FTC acknowledged progress with legislation in Maine and Minnesota for dental therapy programs, but said proposed legislation in Kansas, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Vermont, and Washington should prompt CODA to move forward with establishing uniform accreditation standards.
