<prompt> Human: My mom gets her medical care under the ACA. My dad is older and is on Medicare. If my mom gets dental insurance under ACA, will my dad get it as well?  <response>: The affordable care act is not an insurance plan.If your mother got coverage on the marketplace i.e. she buys it it would depend which plan she bought and whether she bought for an individual or family policy. Many healthcare plans on the marketplace do not include dental.If your mother got covered because she qualified under expanded medicaid it depends on the state for whether adults are given dental benefits. As so long as your mother financially qualifies assuming your state offers it then your dad should as well you can qualify for both medicare and medicaid.
