The landscape of health care is shifting, fueled by patients who are no longer passive recipients of care but active participants in their health journeys. *Rebel Health: A Field Guide to the Patient-Led Revolution in Medical Care* explores this growing movement and its profound implications for patients, clinicians, and the health system at large.

Join us for this featured keynote presentation with Susannah Fox, weaving together research, stories, and lessons from her book. The session will then transition to a moderated panel featuring patients who have developed their own strategies, technologies, and communities to address gaps in care, with special attention to the lived experiences of people with hearing loss, auditory processing disorders, and tinnitus. Together, we will examine what clinicians can learn from these pioneers, and how audiology can embrace patient-led insights to improve outcomes and equity in hearing care.

**Attendees will be able to:**

- Define and Apply the Rebel Health Framework
- Describe the four archetypes of patient innovators (Seekers, Networkers, Solvers, and Champions)
- Identify patient-initiated advocacy, support networks, and tools that address unmet needs in hearing care and tinnitus management
- Develop strategies for partnering with patients as co-creators of knowledge, resources, and solutions, with the goal of fostering a more inclusive and resilient model of audiologic care
