The indications for cochlear implantation have evolved significantly over the past decade. This panel discussion will discuss these cochlear implant candidacy changes, referral relationships, activation and programming considerations, and the long-term management of cochlear implants. Panelists will debunk the myths of cochlear implant programs in a private practice and share how others can successfully integrate implants into their practices.

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe the current cochlear implant candidacy criteria for binaural hearing loss and single sided deafness
  2. Describe the components of an evidence based cochlear implant evaluation
  3. Describe how to operationalize and monetize a cochlear implant program
