Correction of Claw Finger Deformity: Restoring Finger Balance and Grip
Claw finger deformity results from muscle imbalance or nerve injury, leading to hyperextension at the knuckle and flexion at the finger joints. Surgical correction restores balance and functional grip.
What It Costs
MOH Fee Benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 4,300 – 6,700
• Anaesthetist fee: Not available
What’s Typically Covered
Most plans cover:
• Function-limiting finger deformity correction
• Reconstructive hand surgery
Insurance Tip
Document loss of grip strength and functional limitation, not cosmetic concern.
Conclusion
Correcting clawing improves hand efficiency. Insurance should support functional restoration.
