Abstract:
Orofacial clefts can impair child development and psychomotor and cognitive skills. Services and treatment for children with orofacial clefts can vary depending on cleft severity, presence of associated syndromes, other birth defects and age. This study examined the proportion of children with orofacial clefts enrolled in Medicaid who received primary cleft surgery or received specialized services.
