After establishing a telemedicine system for cochlear implant and hearing aid treatment for both pediatric and adult patients, this study aims to verify the usefulness and safety of the system. Additionally, a comparative evaluation between telemedicine and face-to-face care will be conducted. By performing a detailed cost-effectiveness analysis in comparison with face-to-face care, the study will examine the positioning of telemedicine within the current healthcare insurance system and aim to present informed perspectives and future directions regarding the potential inclusion of telemedicine in insurance coverage and reimbursement
Efficacy
Cochlear implant mapping (for cochlear implant users) and hearing aid fitting (for hearing aid users) performed and adjusted through telemedicine and face-to-face care, respectively
Hearing ability of users assessed through telemedicine and face-to-face care (for cochlear implant users: sound-field speech perception test using CI2004, iCI2004, and cochlear implant fitting threshold; for hearing aid users: sound-field speech perception test using the 67-S word list, 57-S word list, and hearing aid fitting threshold), along with functional evaluation metrics (questionnaire assessments such as SSQ12, SSQP, HUI).

Week 2: Remote
Remote mapping and device adjustment at home, functional evaluation metrics, assessment of patient, family, and healthcare provider satisfaction (questionnaire assessment), and evaluation of the utilization of medical and non-medical resources (questionnaire assessment).
Week 4: Remote
Remote mapping and device adjustment at home, functional evaluation metrics, assessment of patient, family, and healthcare provider satisfaction (questionnaire assessment), and evaluation of the utilization of medical and non-medical resources (questionnaire assessment).
Week 6: In-person
In-person mapping and device adjustment at the medical institution, functional evaluation metrics, hearing ability assessment, evaluation of the utilization of medical and non-medical resources (questionnaire assessment), and collection of the telemedicine system.
Comparison of each evaluation metric between in-person and remote settings.
