(KSL News) The Utah State Health Department has established a fund to help pay for dental and vision services for Medicaid recipients about to lose those benefits.
The legislature cut those benefits, and they'll be discontinued on July 1st.
Governor Huntsman says an anonymous donor has offered one million dollars to help fund the programs, but only if residents of the state match the money.
Donations can be sent to the Medicaid Optional Services Account care of the Utah Health Department.
