Families USA/YouGov Iowa Poll

In August 2019, Families USA and YouGov conducted a poll nationally and in Iowa on the popularity of adding oral health coverage to the Medicare program. The poll found that voters of all types support adding oral health coverage to Medicare, and even high support among Iowa Democrats, who will be winnowing a crowded field of presidential hopefuls. Eight in 10 Iowa Democrats favor adding a dental benefit to Medicare, and two-thirds say they would be more likely to support a candidate who shares that position. This table summarizes the questions and results from the Iowa poll. National results are also posted (link to national). Additional information about poll methodology can be found in Families USA’s press release.
