The power of analogs! At Auditory Insight, we leverage best practices in analogous industries when creating go-to-market strategy. Hear more in my guest appearance on @FuturEar_Radio podcast below:

Good to see that @AmplifonHearing is marketing its new app as helping #medicareadvantage plans improve their star ratings via falls management. This #CMSprogram drives plans' quality bonus payment and can often make the difference between plan profitability and loss

Thanks a lot @NWilliamsHealth for coming on the podcast!

Nancy's research at Auditory Insight is among my favorite resources to better understand how the hearing health market is evolving.

Highly recommend her research notes: https://t.co/rXOSwAafZ6

"Much of the conversation revolves around the longstanding and pervasive stigma associated with hearing loss," and Nancy has ideas for overcoming this "major obstacle that impedes so many from treating their hearing loss." << 💯 YES! 👏 @NWilliamsHealth via @HearingTracker (ty!)

“I had a more and more difficult time giving families the diagnosis of hearing loss…” writes @JaneMadell in this moving and perceptive article about how pediatric #audiologists need to recognize their own grief in order to help families with theirs.

Good summary by @AGKootenay of Decibel Therapeutics' positive results from its phase 1b trial of DB-020, a therapy that protects against #hearingloss from chemotherapy.

A paper that strongly influenced our thinking to Auditory Insight Q4 research note on adult barriers to #cochlearimplants. Shout-out to Sanjana Balanchandra, Anthony M Tolisano, Shafeen Qazi, and Jacob Hunter!

Happy to say that our article from last month on barriers to #cochlearimplants for adults had a lot of traction at MedCity News, which covers the business of #innovation in overall #healthcare. @tinachildress

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

Auditory Insight's research indicates that inconvenience, stigma & discomfort are secondary to overall ability to communicate and surgical risks when deciding to get a #cochlearimplant. Will follow @EnvoyMedical's trial for its Acclaim Cochlear Implant (based on FDA IDE approval)

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

Great news that @wirecutter is testing "PSAPs, hearables, #hearingaids that are accessible via remote care, and early samples of #otc hearing aids.” For more, see this article by @LaurenDragan and @AndyB_Knowles: https://t.co/dJTjncOE9q

An excellent piece on how to characterize #hearingloss (it isn't simple!):

Had a blast at the CT @HLAA #Walk4Hearing last weekend! Danced to the song "Footloose" with an #ASL accompaniment. Walked around the lovely Walnut Hill Park with friends. Can't wait for next year!

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

@zoepagnamenta @AnthonyAlmojera @HarperAudio @MarinerBooks Love this human touch of seeing the author at work!

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

Loved @megtomwx's book for children with #hearingloss, "The Heart of Hearing"! If only it had been available when I was diagnosed at age 6. https://t.co/lMObDqGtrM

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

People with hearing loss are individuals too. Their gain preferences for #hearingaids are consistent and yet may differ greatly from the NAL prescription - see @NIDCDdirector's recent @NIH post laying out the need for #OTC #Hearing aids. https://t.co/3EdRtSZIDI

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

Medicare Advantage payers recognize that #hearingloss is a widespread social determinant of health. Seniors with untreated hearing loss are more likely to experience social isolation, depression, anxiety, and paranoia. https://t.co/lOQFl7wynS #socialdeterminantsofhealth

[Nancy M. Williams @NWilliamsHealth]

Given the Medicare Advantage payers’ quiet revolution in addressing hearing healthcare, how have the world’s five global hearing aid manufacturers responded to this market opportunity? In two ways... https://t.co/lOQFl7wynS
