In November 1999, specific patient deaths[31] brought criticism on Operation Smile's medical procedures, suggesting the organization prioritized publicity and volume over patient welfare and safety.[32][33] In response, Operation Smile conducted an internal review. Initially, the organization "promised to make public the full findings of the review," though later chose not to release the findings, considering the review "an internal matter". Several directors disagreed with this choice and left the board. Four months after announcing the review, the organization publicly admitted organizational flaws.[34] By 2002, the organization also established medical credential standards, improved medical monitoring of patients, and implemented quality and financial controls.[35]
