If you work with patients who cannot benefit from hearing aids or no longer receive as much benefit as they need, we welcome you to attend this free informational forum to learn more about two remarkable alternative treatment options. This event will highlight Cochlear’s implantable hearing technology, the Freedom™ cochlear implant system and the Baha® direct bone conduction system. Areas of discussion will include candidacy, the evaluation process, and patient outcomes. We will also discuss the need for establishing and building relationships between implant centers and referring hearing healthcare professionals and the benefits of providing binaural hearing by maintaining a hearing aid on the non-implant ear or through bilateral implantation.
Cochlear’s implantable hearing technology continues to advance and change the lives of those who use it. Join us to find out how these innovations can help your patients discover the world of sound they have been missing.
