Healthcare Policies and Regulatory Landscape

Policy changes and Reimbursement scenario

According to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, On 25 March 2020, National Health Service (NHS) dental practices were told to cease routine dentistry, including orthodontics, in response to the pandemic. NHS dental practices in England were subsequently asked to reopen from 8 June 2020 for all face to face care and have remained open. In addition, on 4 January 2021, UK government guidance published regarding which businesses can remain open in England during the new national lockdown specifically lists medical and dental services. As per British Society of Periodontology, in 2018, BSPs conducted awareness programs regarding the importance of gum health in pregnancy and childhood.

According to a research study by Jamie Daly et al., published in Community Dental Health Journal 2020, in the United Kingdom, as the incidence of COVID-19 infection fell, there was a phased re-opening of dental practices, with considerable variation in the guidance given for safe reopening. Upon re-opening, two-thirds of UK practices runned at less than a quarter of pre-pandemic capacity, with 78% citing the post-treatment procedure for the clearance of infectious aerosols after aerosol-generating procedures as the greatest obstacle towards increasing activity. Dental procedures are common in the United Kingdom. According to an NHS report, 39.7 million Courses of Treatment were delivered in 2018-19, which is an increase of 1.28% from previous year.

During the COVID-19 pandemic 2020, the British Endodontic Society (Bhanderi & Tomson 2020) proposed a palliative approach for the treatment of endodontic disease using verbal advice and detailed analgesic and antibiotic regimens for both adult and paediatric patients.
