Abstract
|
|
|
|
As part of strengthening the National Health Insurance, health insurance benefits for malocclusion and the implementation of orthodontic/orthopedic treatment for cleft lip and/or palate patients have been expanded to include all ongenital craniofacial deformities. This study summarized recent trends through a literature review of the incidence of orofacial cleft. With the release of medical insurance claim data, we analyzed the status of claims according to orthodontic/orthopedic treatment. Although it will take some time for a new policy to be established, we analyzed and reported the current claim data. Finally, we introduced the names of diseases that could benefit from congenital malformations and orthodontic treatment, and identified precautions in the changed policy.
