Throat Flap Surgery for Cleft Palate Speech

Oregon rates for HCPCS 42225

Surgery that lifts a flap of tissue from the back wall of the throat and attaches it to the soft palate, narrowing the gap between the mouth and the nose. It is done when too much air escapes through the nose during speech, leaving it sounding very nasal after a cleft palate has been repaired. Closing that gap lets the palate seal so speech sounds clearer.
