SUMMARY:NSSLHA\, SAA\, SADA Presents: The OTC Hearing Aid Landscape and Implications for Students
DESCRIPTION:With the implementation of the regulations for over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids\, the practice landscape for audiologists has assumed a new dimension. Hearing loss has never been simple\, but the OTC market adds new layers of complexity. The business models in audiology practices may need to adapt\, and practice patterns will adjust to accommodate what likely will be an increased need for patient education and counseling. It will not only be patients with untreated hearing loss who present but potentially those with mistreated hearing loss due to misunderstandings and frustrations with the use of OTC devices on their own. Students in AuD programs can arm themselves with knowledge and experience to prepare for audiology practice. \nAt the completion of the sessions\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nExplain the distinctions of a prescription hearing aid versus an OTC hearing aid\nIdentify resources available to provide guidance to audiologists and consumers\nDescribe strategies for maximizing clinical education opportunities to prepare for the implications of OTC hearing aids in audiology practice\n\nRegister \nModerators\nGabby Howard\, University of Pittsburgh\, national NSSLHA\nAlexis Leiderman\, City University of New York Graduate Center (CUNY)\, national SAA\nJasmin Rodriguez\, California State University Northridge (CSUN)\, national SADA \nSpeakers\nCornetta Mosley\, AuD\, PhD \n \nCornetta Mosley\, AuD\, PhD\, is an ASHA-certified Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Texas at Dallas. She teaches graduate and undergraduate didactic\, lab\, and clinical courses and advises budding Doctor of Audiology (AuD) students in research and clinical endeavors. Dr. Mosley’s role as an educator is fueled by an interest in translational science. Her lectures emphasize the connection between clinical practices and scientific evidence; they encourage students to employ critical thinking strategies to make evidence-based clinical decisions. Dr. Mosley investigates innovative strategies to improve clinical practices and patient experiences. She engages in research\, clinical practices\, and service activities to promote healthy aging for older adults with hearing loss. Her research interests include aural rehabilitation\, improving access to hearing healthcare\, and speech perception in adults who use amplification. She has also served as a clinical supervisor in a university setting\, where she engaged in direct patient care across the lifespan. Her clinical interests include aural rehabilitation\, adult amplification\, and audiologic assessment. She is a Dallas native\, avid runner\, and alumna of Louisiana State University (B.A. in Communication Sciences and Disorders) and the University of Washington (AuD/PhD). \nCatherine Palmer\, PhD \n \nCatherine Palmer\, PhD\, is the Interim Chair and Professor of the Department of Communication Science Disorders at the University of Pittsburgh and serves as the Director of Audiology for the UPMC Integrated Health System. \nIn these capacities she teaches graduate-level amplification and practice management courses and supervises students in direct patient care. Dr. Palmer mentors PhD students and conducts research in the areas of auditory learning post hearing aid fitting; the relationship among hearing\, cognitive health\, and health outcomes; and matching technology to individual needs. \nShe has published over 90 articles and book chapters in these topic areas as well as provided over 100 national and international presentations. Dr. Palmer is the editor-in-chief of Seminars in Hearing (Thieme) and is a consultant to the National Board of Medical Examiners for hearing related accommodations. \nAlicia D.D. Spoor\, AuD \n \nAlicia D.D. Spoor\, AuD\, is President of Designer Audiology\, LLC\, in Highland\, Maryland. She earned her Doctor of Audiology degree from Gallaudet University and completed her fourth-year externship at the Mayo Clinic Arizona. She opened her own practice in 2014 with an unbundled/itemized pricing structure\, one of the first in the nation to do so from day one\, to benefit the patient and demonstrate the value of the audiologist. Dr. Spoor is a Past President of the Academy of Doctors of Audiology (ADA) and Maryland Academy of Audiology (MAA); she is the current ADA Advocacy Chair and MAA Legislative Chair. Alicia is a past recipient of ADA’s Craig W. Johnson Advocacy Award and MSU’s College of Communication Arts & Sciences’ Outstanding Alumni. \nDr. Spoor is speaking as a representative of the private practice setting.
