What is the expected impact of improved access to hearing health care?

Improved access to hearing health care primarily aims to ensure that underserved populations receive the necessary support and treatment. By enhancing availability and overcoming barriers such as cost, location, and awareness, more individuals, especially those from marginalized communities, can seek proper evaluation, diagnosis, and intervention for hearing-related issues. This can significantly contribute to their overall health and well-being, reduce the impacts of untreated hearing loss on quality of life, and promote social integration.

While other options suggest benefits related to market and technology, the core objective of addressing access disparities is to prioritize the needs of individuals who are currently unable to receive care. Thus, the focus is on providing necessary support to these populations rather than just emphasizing market growth or sales increases.
