Recorded Webinar
Course: #40741Level: Intermediate1 Hour
No CEUs/Hours Offered
Over The Counter (OTC) Hearing Aids were approved and introduced in the USA in October, 2022. The initial arguments to allow OTC focused on affordability and access. Although access has been readily addressed, affordability is still a significant issue. Further, the hearing aid stigma is still a significant impediment to large scale acceptance. Beck & Harvey noted that unless stigma due to cosmetic issues was addressed, acceptance would remain impeded. In this presentation we examine the impact of OTC, the state of the prescription market, and new innovations which address the three main impediments to acceptance.
