This course seeks to demonstrate the utilization of the Central Test Battery/Buffalo Model therapy as a viable and innovative means to diagnose and treat Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). This session will help clinicians interpret information from assessment results in the hope of furthering earlier identification, intervention and remediation.

This course focuses on the fundamentals of third-party payer/insurance contracting and credentialing. We will explore the steps involved in enrollment and credentialing and how to decide whether or not in-network participation is good for your practice.

There are several options to choose from when selecting a fitting rationale, so how do you know what is the best choice for your patient? Join us for another Sonic Spotlight Series to learn more about fitting rationales – what they are and how they differ.

Parents are agents of brain change. Parents’ everyday moments can change babies’ brains. Parents have what it takes to help their babies/toddlers at home and AB has tools to help you do it.

This course features clinicians from the Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children presenting actual case studies on amplification and assessment with a range of audiological and medical diagnoses represented.

Online education, tele-therapy?! You don’t have to be an expert. AB has tools created by experts in the field to support your child’s learning at home.

This Grand Rounds features a presentation of two cases to illustrate the assessment and management of patients with auditory processing disorders. Cases include one child and one adult. Following each case presentation, we will discuss information essential for identification, diagnosis, and management of patients with auditory processing disorders.

Children with hearing loss returning to school may encounter teachers and other school-based professionals who will be using personal protective equipment (PPE). This webinar will share data on the effect of different PPE on audibility for students with hearing loss.

Perhaps the most important part of any hearing aid fitting is the ability to deliver an effective and appropriate first fit that qualifies as a “best fit”. The ability to optimize gain and output for each unique hearing loss is necessary to ensure that the technology we are fitting is able to deliver amplification that helps facilitate effective communication. To assist us in this endeavor, we have a variety of fitting formulas to choose from in order to address the unique needs of every patient. In addition, prescriptive targets play a significant role in the patient’s acceptance or rejection of amplification. This course will provide an overview of prescriptive fitting formulas and discuss fitting considerations for different patient populations.

Research has linked physical health to the prevalence of hearing loss, and the prevalence of hearing loss to cognitive health. As hearing healthcare professionals, it is important to understand these relationships from the aspect of counseling patients on the impact of lifestyle on hearing and the benefit of hearing aids on listening lifestyle and satisfaction.
