Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Audiology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • The conventional cochlear implant (CI) selection process involves multiple appointments and extended waiting times.
  • This can lead to increased patient burden, travel costs, and healthcare professional resource allocation challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a novel Multidisciplinary Single-day Cochlear Implant Selection (MSCS) protocol.
  • To assess the potential of MSCS in reducing referral-to-surgery duration, hospital visits, and healthcare professional time.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot MSCS program was implemented at a tertiary referral center.
  • A retrospective analysis of 15 CI candidates compared the MSCS protocol with the standard selection process for time and cost savings.

Main Results:

  • The MSCS protocol reduced the CI selection phase from 84 days to 1 day.
  • Hospital visits decreased from 6 to 2, significantly lowering patient travel time and costs.
  • Healthcare professional time spent on patient selection decreased by 27%.

Conclusions:

  • The MSCS protocol demonstrates significant efficiency gains in the CI selection process.
  • This approach alleviates patient and healthcare provider burdens.
  • MSCS offers a promising model for optimizing CI care delivery.
