特定疾病
Specific diseases do not refer to thalassemia, hemophilia, and kidney failure (patients requiring dialysis). The title of specific diseases was first used by the foundation of the Special Diseases Foundation. With the efforts of the Foundation for Special Diseases, Thalassemia Disorders, Hemophilia and Dialysis, under the title “Specific Diseases”, was passed law. Although common medical science does not have a definition called special diseases.
一般来说，某些疾病的特征可以包括：治疗的严重性、治疗费用高以及该国的疾病流行率低。
值得注意的是，具有上述特征的疾病以罕见病的名义在不同国家，甚至伊朗都广为人知。但正如伊朗所说，地中海贫血、血友病和透析仅被称为特殊疾病。这些疾病的费用完全免费，由疾病控制基金会承担。
