Abstract

This article explores the steps and factors that audiology clinics should consider to successfully integrate over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, ensuring that patients with mild to moderate hearing loss have access to affordable and effective intervention options. In 2017, Mass Eye and Ear (MEE) began recommending and selling personal sound amplification products in anticipation of the OTC hearing aid market. Audiology practices may be interested in incorporating the recommendation and sale of OTC hearing aids into their services, but they might be unsure about how to approach this process.
