HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted September 9 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted September 9 Med-El received FDA approval for HearCare in November. Today at a CI appointment in NYC, they had not heard anything about it yet. I realize Med-El does not discuss items before receiving FDA or CE approval. But since HearCare already has FDA approval, is there any word on when it will be released so clinics can offer remote programming for their Med-El users like they do already for competitor brands? Has anyone heard anything yet? Jewel, Lauren and Kylie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 I haven’t heard anything about HearCare but my audiologist clinic should be updated to Maestro 10 by the time of my next appointment. My audiologist is aware the app is coming but it depends on clinics opting into the service. Not sure if mine will opt in or not.

John F Posted September 11 Report Share Posted September 11 Last I heard from MedEl was they were hoping to roll it out in the next few months but had ran into some issues of sorts. Lauren 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Schulz Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 There's legal complexities around how remote programing will be offered since each state has different practice requirements. From what I've been told, only clinics from the state you officially reside in will be allowed to send you remote programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
