Hello Fellow Audiology Students!
I was just curious to know if anyone is aware of the Medicare Audiology Services Enhancement Act (proposed by ASHA) and the possible change to the autonomy of our field in the future? Once it is implemented, patient's will need a physician's "referral" to seek our services and care. I was just wanting to know your thoughts on this matter. Here is the link to more information about the the Act.
