New Developments in Assessment of Hearing Loss for ACC
  
Introduction: Many ORL specialists perform assessments for ACC, the vast majority of which are for occupational noise-induced hearing loss, together with those for treatment injury, and trauma of various kinds.
Discussion: Recent developments to assist in assessing these clients will be discussed relating to:
  • Guideline development for treatment injury claims for cisplatin ototoxicity
  • an audiology learning module on ACC cover, which summarises the key issues from a legal and clinical perspective, in an attempt to improve the appropriateness of claims lodged for occupational noise-induced hearing loss
  • the new percentage loss of hearing spreadsheet produced by Ben de Farias for NZ Audiological Society, with additional measures, and links to occupational noise levels
  • Mark Lutman’s app for calculation of NIHL as differentiated from age which is now available for use in New Zealand
  • acoustic shock disorder assessment
