Additions for 2019:
The course will be worth a maximum of 1.60 CEUs (16.0 hours of continuing education). CEUs will be offered and have been approved by the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) and the American Academy of Audiology (AAA). AAA ABA Tier 1 and Ethics credit (2 hours) will be available from this course. Please note: ASHA does not require that a program need to be approved by ASHA to count towards re-certification. As a result, no ASHA CEUs will be offered. You can learn more at http://www.asha.org/certification/maintFAQs/#do%20I%20have%20to%20earn.
The course is geared to audiology practices, otolaryngology practices which house an audiology department, hospital audiology departments or hearing aid dispensing practices which employ audiologists. Registration is open to practice managers, audiologists, coders, office staff, hearing aid dispensers and AuD students.
