Healthcare Access of the future
According to the American Medical Association,
70% of doctors visits and 40% of ER visits
could be avoided through telemedicine.
Increasingly, early interventionists, speech-language pathologists, teachers of the
deaf, and audiologists are adopting models of telehealth &
telepractice to serve more children and adults with
cochlear implants.

The Question for the Day
• With the evolution and convergence of communication technology and health care, how will telehealth and mHealth applications impact the delivery of medical, speech-language, audiological and other services to children and adults with cochlear implants?
