Centrix has partnered with Henry Schein again this year with a donation to the Lifeline Heroes Challenge. This is an organization that works by volunteer to provide dental care to America’s military veterans.
With our support, Lifeline Heroes has continued to reach more veterans in need of dental care.
Here is the need among our veterans:
- Many US veterans suffer from serious oral health conditions that pose risks to their overall health.
- Though the VA provides medical care, eligibility for outpatient dental care is limited to service-related conditions.
- Only 3% of veterans receive dental care through the VA.
- Dental Lifeline Network (DLN) matches veterans who are elderly, disabled, or medically-fragile with volunteer dentists and labs who provide treatment at no cost.
- DLN’s Lifeline Heroes Challenge rallies support to help grow our network of volunteers and coordinate care for 1,000 veterans each year.
On November 11, 2023, we will be sharing the Lifeline Heroes message on all Centrix social channels. We at Centrix are proud to help bring awareness to this cause and to honor our veterans.
