[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Millions of Americans experience some degree of hearing loss. The Social Security Administration (SSA) operates programs that provide cash disability benefits to people with permanent impairments like hearing loss, if they can show that their impairments meet stringent SSA criteria and their earnings are below an SSA threshold. The National Research Council convened an expert committee at the request of the SSA to study the issues related to disability determination for people with hearing loss.

It should be useful to audiologists, otolaryngologists, disability advocates, and others who are concerned with people who have hearing loss."]
