263 - Regulation, Innovation, and the Road to Fully Implantable Hearing Devices

Hearing technology is evolving, and fully implantable devices are becoming a reality. In this discussion, Brent Lucas, CEO of Envoy Medical, joins Shari Eberts to talk about the company's fully implantable hearing solutions, including the Esteem active middle ear implant and the Acclaim fully implantable cochlear implant, which is currently in clinical trials. Unlike traditional hearing aids and cochlear implants, these devices do not require an external component, allowing users to hear 24/7, even while sleeping or showering.The conversation also explores key trends in hearing technology, including increased competition and innovation in the space. With major tech players like Apple entering the market and advancements in consumer hearing solutions, the landscape of hearing care is shifting. Brent discusses how greater competition, choice, and awareness can help address hearing loss stigma and ensure that individuals have more options beyond traditional hearing aids.Additionally, Brent highlights the Hearing Device Coverage Clarification Act, legislation aimed at improving insurance coverage for fully implantable hearing devices. He emphasizes the importance of consumer advocacy and encourages individuals to research all available hearing solutions to find the best option for their unique needs.Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest episodes each week, and follow This Week in Hearing on LinkedIn and X (formerly Twitter):
