IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR PROSPECTIVE HEARING AID USERS
Good health practice requires that a person with a hearing loss have
a medical evaluation by a licensed physician (preferably a physician
who specializes in diseases of the ear) before purchasing a hearing
aid . Licensed physicians who specialize in diseases of the ear are often
referred to as otolaryngologists, otologists, or otorhinolaryngologists .
The purpose of medical evaluation is to assure that all medically treata-
ble conditions that may affect hearing are identified and treated before
the hearing aid is purchased .
Following the medical evaluation, the physician will give you a written
statement that states that your hearing loss has been medically evalu-
ated and that you may be considered a candidate for a hearing aid . The
physician will refer you to an audiologist or a hearing aid dispenser, as
appropriate, for a hearing aid evaluation .
The audiologist or hearing aid dispenser will conduct a hearing aid eval-
uation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing aid . The
hearing aid evaluation will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select
and fit a hearing aid to your individual needs .
