This webinar is part of the SIGnature Series, a collection of webinars developed by volunteers from ASHA’s Special Interest Groups, who share practical, evidence-based suggestions and solutions based on their in-depth knowledge, clinical experiences, and passion for their specialty areas. This webinar was developed by SIG 8: Audiology and Public Health.

You will be able to:

• Identify practical and financial constraints audiologists experience due to current Medicare and Medicaid regulations
• Identify potential effects of Medicare and Medicaid policies on patients’ access to care
• Describe dimensions of access to hearing health care beyond insurance status and affordability
