Which group is NOT represented on the Board?

The Board is structured to include specific representatives that ensure a balanced approach to governance and oversight of hearing aid practices. The inclusion of members advocating for hearing aid consumers, physicians, and public members serves to integrate diverse perspectives and expertise related to the field of hearing aids.

In this context, having a state senator is not a standard representation on the Board. While a state senator may have insights into legislative matters related to hearing aids, the focus is primarily on professionals directly involved in hearing aid services, consumer advocacy, and the general public's interests. This approach ensures that the decisions made by the Board are grounded in the realities of both the industry and the needs of those who rely on hearing aids, rather than being influenced by political perspectives that may not directly relate to the practice itself.
