The expenses of microtia operation cannot be reimbursed by medical insurance.
Although microtia is not fatal, it seriously affects personal image and may even affect children's physical and mental health and development. In the face of microtia, many patients are eager to improve through surgery, but they are confused about whether the surgical expenses can be reimbursed.

Can't be reimbursed through medical insurance

The cost of microtia surgery cannot be reimbursed by medical insurance, and the patient needs to bear it himself. Therefore, when considering surgery, patients need to know the cost of surgery in advance and make economic preparations.

Optimal operating time

For children, 6 to 12 years old is the best time to repair microtia. Because at the age of 6, the normal auricle size of a child is close to that of an adult, the reconstructed ear can be similar to the normal ear size, and the effect is better.
