“Finally, we have pointed out the lack of published data available to serve as valid sources for comparison to assess the technical competence and practice procedures of those in the DHAT program. We have very little information about these qualities and characteristics from the practice settings in which the majority of private dentists in this country currently operate.”
Evaluation of the Dental Health Aide Therapist Workforce Model in Alaska, Final Report, October 2010, Pg. 5-9, prepared by Scott Wetterhall, MD, MPH, James D. Bader, DDS, MPH, Barri B. Burrus, PhD, Jessica Y. Lee, DDS, PhD, Daniel A. Shugars, DDS, PhD, MPH

Quality Assurance in the Alaska program Begins with a 400+ hour directly supervised
preceptorship DHAs must demonstrate the practical
professional competencies for their level of certification throughout their career
Every two years each DHA must provide evidence that they completed the CE requirements (24 hrs)
Dentists proactively monitor sentinel events and treatment outcomes
These administrative controls help to assure quality and that a single standard of care is met in tribal programs

Competency Based Credentialing
Frequent sampling of knowledge and skills over time – not a single event test
We look directly at the services that they provide day to day to achieve high predictive validity with this process
Each DHAs’ scope of practice is individually assigned based on competency through standing orders
A Federal board oversees the process
