Santo Domingo. – The Senate of the Republic sent to the Public Health Commission the bill that proposes the creation of the General Directorate of Oral Health (DIGESABUC), an initiative aimed at strengthening public policies related to oral health in the Dominican Republic.
The legislative proposal is authored by Senator Lía Díaz de Díaz, who seeks to promote actions that guarantee better care, prevention, and promotion of oral health among the Dominican population.
The project will be studied by the corresponding commission, which will evaluate its scope, feasibility, and impact within the national health system, as part of the legislative process prior to a possible approval.
We recommend reading:
The initiative contemplates the strengthening of guidance, education, and access to dental services strategies, with the aim of promoting more comprehensive, preventive, and accessible care for citizens.
If approved, the creation of DIGESABUC would allow for a specialized entity in the planning and execution of policies focused on oral health, contributing to the well-being and quality of life of the population.
