A Low Cost Cochlear Implant? Bob Begs to Differ.. Not This Way, Anyway!

[Guest guest]

Dear all. The following is in clip from the CI Forum list at York U.

In this case, I believe that the writer, Dr. House, has presented

information contrary to

contemporary technology, in the suggestion of the original single electrode CI

for cost

containment .. allowing more universal access to the devices.

I believe that this approach is flawed, given the minimal benefits of the single

electrode CI from

the dark ages...

Better be that of lowered costs from the CI makers, and more universal insurance

coverage for the

latest in multi-electrode technology from AB, Cochlear and Medel.

Just my humble opinion, do understand.

What do YOU think?

Bob
