Study Results

While Rare Patient Voice does not have access to the results of studies conducted by our clients, we do conduct internal studies from time-to-time and share these results back with those who participated. In a recent study about telehealth, we interviewed n=494 patients and caregivers from the Rare Patient Voice community. Over 114 different diseases were represented in this study. Over the prior three months, 65% of respondents had participated in a telehealth appointment. Below are some reasons that patients and caregivers are in favor of telehealth:

Partner Corner

The Ear Community Organization is a parent driven nonprofit organization & leading helpful resource for helping children & adults who have Microtia (missing or underdeveloped outer ears) & Aural Atresia (missing ear canals, resulting in hearing loss).

Support:
The Ear Community offers support to Microtia and Atresia families through our online support groups & through our website. Our organization offers guidance to families & provides educational information to inform about all options for Microtia & Aural Atresia, donates hearing devices & awards college scholarships. Our organization brings families together at our events & educates them, allowing for everyone to come together in the same situation & know they are not alone.

Awareness:
It is Ear Community’s mission to promote educational & public awareness about Microtia & Atresia and hearing loss, in an unbiased manner, while promoting advocacy & connecting individuals in the same situation. Ear Community also established National Microtia Awareness Day which takes place every November 9th. National Microtia Awareness Day is embraced by families & medical professionals worldwide. The purpose of National Microtia Awareness Day to help promote public awareness of Microtia & Atresia. It is our hope that families who have new babies born with microtia will leave the hospital armed with more answers than questions, & their dreams for their children intact. If more people learn about Microtia and Atresia, they will be kinder & more accepting.

Research:
The Ear Community Organization has embarked on genetic research in hopes that we can understand why Microtia & Aural Atresia happens. Ear Community is on a genetic research grant in collaboration with Harvard, Vanderbilt & the MIT Broad Institute. We are hopeful that the findings from our whole genome research project will shed light on our rare cause allowing us to understand Microtia & Atresia more & allowing us to update current statistics & information about this rare congenital condition.

Advocacy:
Our Ear Community Organization advocates for our community members in many ways. Currently, our organization has federal legislation in place that will help ensure private insurers cover osseointegrated hearing devices, including Bone Anchored Hearing Aids & Cochlear Implants. Our bill is known as Ally’s Act with bill numbers being H.R. 477 & S. 41. Please visit our website to learn how you can help support Ally’s Act.
