Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Compensation claims for hearing loss are increasing. Physicians and audiologists supply necessary information regarding probable cause and amount of loss for evaluating these claims. Compensable hearing loss can arise from several sources. The principal activity has been claims based on industrial noise exposure. Compensation evaluation is considered as a consequence of noise-induced hearing loss, but the evaluation procedure is applicable regardless of the cause of hearing loss.
