Philanthropic and humanitarian audiologic care is offered in many places throughout the US. Unfortunately, there are still large numbers of hard of hearing individuals who do not have access to care. This presentation will illustrate two different audiology private practices who are providing audiologic care to underserved populations. They will share their tips in how these populations can be served by your team.
Upon completion, participants will be able to:
- Define what constitutes an underserved population
- Describe how to publicly and privately fund audiologic care in underserved populations
- Describe how to integrate and operationalize Medicaid and/or sliding fee schedules into your audiology practice
