このコンテンツについて
Because less than five percent of those who could benefit from a cochlear implant either do not take advantage of the device or fall outside of the criteria for coverage, I am constantly seeking articles about coverage.
Donna Sorkin, the Executive Director of the American Cochlear Implant Alliance (ACIAlliance.org) recently did an online presentation about the changes in the criteria for adults covered by Medicare.
By dogged persistence and seven years of work and cooperation with surgeons, audiologists, and medical centers, as well as public input (including from one of the best known cochlear implant recipients, Lou Ferrigno) eventually and happily CMS, the administration arm of Medicare, broadened the criteria.
The American Cochlear Implant Alliance, founded in 2011, has a very diverse involvement with hearing loss and cochlear implants as you will learn in this interview. From information to rehabilitation, you will find it all at ACIAlliance.org
Thank you Donna Sorkin for your advocacy and for taking the time to talk to us. TRANSCRIPT IS AVAILABLE AT COCHLEARIMPLANTBASICS.COM
