SUMMARY:Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy: A Specialty Practice in Physical Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Presenters:\nAngelica Taylor\, PT\, DPT\nZahilly Salinas\, PT\, DPT\nEileen Garay\, PT\, DPT \nCEUs: 0.1 AAA CEUs \nDuration: 60 minutes \nInstructional Level: Beginner \nProgram Focus: Knowledge \nDescription:\n\nThis course is designed to facilitate understanding the role physical therapists can play in the care of patients with vestibular conditions and fostering collaborative interdisciplinary education. The aim of this presentation is to help audiologists identify the types of diagnoses treated by physical therapy and have familiarity with the examination\, evaluation\, and treatment of patients with vestibular conditions. Following this presentation\, audiologists will confidently know when it is appropriate to refer their patients to physical therapists with advanced training in vestibular rehabilitation for proper care. \nLearning Outcomes: \n1. Identify the types of vestibular pathologies/diagnoses treated by physical therapists\, as well as recognizing appropriate referrals.\n2. Recognize the components of the physical therapy examination and evaluation.\n3. Familiarize themselves with current clinical practice guidelines by physical therapists as well as treatment goals\, techniques\, and outcome assessments. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Case-Based Options for Coding Audiology Services
DESCRIPTION:Presenters:\nErin L. Miller\, AuD\nAnna M. Jilla\, AuD\, PhD\nAnnette A. Burton\, AuD \nCEUs: 0.15 AAA CEUs \nDuration: 90 minutes \nInstructional Level: Beginner \nProgram Focus: Knowledge \nDescription:\n \nCurrently\, many payers do not provide coverage to their beneficiaries for all services within audiology’s scope of practice. Some payers only cover medically necessary hearing and balance assessment services with no coverage provision for therapeutic services. Additionally\, most payers do not cover the assessment and management services performed by audiologists\, which are necessary for quality patient care. Audiologists must be knowledgeable of payer-specific policies for those with whom they contract and determine if their reimbursement covers the cost of providing the service. This session will discuss case-based coding/payment options for audiologists to consider when providing non-covered audiology services. \nLearning Outcomes: \n1. Describe alternatives for coding of audiology services that fall outside of those currently defined by the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT)™ code set.\n2. Identify ethical and legal options to code for non-covered audiology services.\n3. Summarize how coding for non-covered audiology services can elevate the value of audiology services to consumers. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Academy Research Conference 2023: Next Generation Inner-Ear Therapies
DESCRIPTION:Available On-Demand Through January 14\, 2024! \nThe live event was held on October 27\, 2023\, but you can still register for the on-demand content through January 14\, 2024. \nRegister for On-Demand! \nChair: Colleen Le Prell\, PhDCo-Chair: Gayla Poling\, PhD \nThe fields of audiology and hearing science are vastly advancing. Nearly a quarter of Americans older than 12 years of age are estimated to have some degree of hearing loss. As most older adults will experience hearing loss\, inner-ear regeneration and cell therapies would significantly expand remediation options beyond amplification devices alone. \nResearch indicates that inner-ear protective and regenerative therapies are promising and could lead to significant changes in audiological management. Multiple therapeutics are currently under evaluation in animal models and human clinical trials\, with the potential for new medicines thus on the horizon. \nThis virtual conference aims to describe the current state of these therapies and provide future expectations for clinicians providing hearing-related services. \nAgenda \n\n\n\n\n8:00–8:15 am\nWelcome–Background and Introductory Session\nBopanna Ballachanda\, PhD\, Academy President\nColleen Le Prell\, PhD\, ARC 2023 Program Chair\n\n\n8:15–9:00 am\nDeveloping and Testing Therapies for the Inner Ear\nColleen Le Prell\, PhD\, University of Texas at Dallas\n\n\n\n9:00–9:45 am\nCisplatin Ototoxicity and Its Prevention\nLisa Cunningham\, PhD\, National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD)\n\n\n9:45–10:00 am\nBreak\n\n\n10:00–10:45 am\nGene Therapies for Childhood Hearing Loss\nKaren Avraham\, PhD\, Tel Aviv University\n\n\n10:45–11:30 am\nPanel Discussion/Questions\n\n\n11:30 am–12:00 pm\nSelected Industry Presentations \n\n\n12:00–1:00 pm\nLunch Break\n\n\n1:00–1:15 pm\nWelcome – Advanced Session\nGayla Poling PhD\, ARC 2023 Program Committee Co-Chair\n\n\n\n1:15–2:00 pm\nNoise-Induced Hearing Loss and its Prevention\nCOL Samuel Spear MC USAF.
