View Course Details Please note: exam questions are subject to change.


1.  Which implementation decision most directly reduces time-to-launch while preserving a clinic’s ability to individualize tinnitus care pathways when adopting Oto?
  1. Creating clinic-specific educational content before enrolling any patients
  2. Applying Oto’s onboarding and workflow support to map the platform onto existing clinical processes
  3. Increasing the duration of initial tinnitus evaluations to accommodate app training
  4. Standardizing diagnostic procedures prior to introducing Oto
2.  When determining how to integrate Oto into an existing tinnitus clinic, which consideration most appropriately drives workflow customization to ensure both scalability and clinical effectiveness?
  1. Alignment with Oto’s default user engagement cadence to ensure consistent patient usage
  2. The lowest common denominator of patient technology access to reduce onboarding variability
  3. The interaction between existing treatment pathways, provider time allocation, and follow-up responsibilities
  4. The need to ensure every tinnitus patient progresses through the same digital care sequence
3.  A multi-provider tinnitus clinic is integrating Oto while continuing in-person counseling, hearing aid fittings, and external neuromodulation referrals. Which consideration is most critical for determining where Oto should be positioned within the patient care pathway to prevent redundancy and clinician overload?
  1. The sequence in which patients are introduced to digital versus in-clinic education
  2. The average tinnitus severity score of the clinic’s patient population
  3. How Oto’s between-visit support intersects with existing provider touchpoints and decision-making responsibilities
  4. The need to ensure equal app utilization across all clinicians
4.  An audiology practice wants to design a tinnitus workflow that uses Oto to extend care beyond the clinic while allowing clinicians to tailor treatment combinations over time. Which design principle best supports this goal when building the workflow?
  1. Structuring Oto deployment to flex around clinical milestones rather than fixed visit types
  2. Assigning Oto as a fixed, standalone intervention prior to all other treatments
  3. Limiting Oto access to patients who have completed device-based interventions
  4. Standardizing Oto usage duration for all tinnitus patients
5.  A tinnitus clinic currently conducts a 60-minute initial evaluation followed by two 30-minute counseling visits. The clinic plans to add Oto without increasing total in-clinic time. Which appointment structure most effectively integrates Oto while preserving clinician decision points?
  1. Replace the second counseling visit with mandatory app usage
  2. Introduce Oto immediately after the initial evaluation and use it to support goals between follow-up visits
  3. Delay Oto until all counseling visits are completed
  4. Require patients to complete Oto modules during clinic appointments
