Over the next few years, the availability of OTC hearing devices, Medicare reimbursement and the rise of tele-audiology services are likely to alter the existing bundled business model. The purpose of this course is to help hearing care professionals anticipate these changes and provide proven insights on fee-for-service offerings that maintain both practice profitability and high-quality patient care.
