| GoTo Telemed Launches Comprehensive Hearing Disorders Management ProgramBy: Go TO TELEMED Hearing loss is the third most common chronic health condition in the United States, affecting approximately 38 million adults—more than 15% of the adult population. Among adults aged 60 and older, the prevalence rises to nearly one in three, and among adults aged 80 and older, more than half experience disabling hearing loss [1]. Despite the availability of effective interventions, including hearing aids, cochlear implants, and auditory rehabilitation, the vast majority of adults with hearing loss do not receive appropriate care due to a severe shortage of audiologists, long wait times, geographic maldistribution of hearing health specialists, and the high cost of in‑person care. GoTo Telemed's program directly confronts these barriers by delivering guideline‑aligned hearing care through secure, HIPAA‑compliant virtual consultations. "Hearing loss is not an inevitable consequence of aging—it is a treatable medical condition that profoundly affects quality of life, cognitive health, and social engagement, yet millions of older adults never receive the care they need because they cannot access an audiologist," Media Contact: GoTo Telemed Media Relations info@gototelemed.com (660) 628-1660 https://gototelemed.com/ End
