Hearing aids in but still not understanding words

Dave,
I find it suspicious that you are pumping this Small Cap company that has very little revenues and just went live with a Securities Registration this week. My background is as a CFO of a public company and have taken numerous companies public. There might be something here in the future but it is very early and has a very limited distribution network i.e. very few audiologists selling/implanting. I am not sure it is appropriate for what people are looking for on this site. Just my opinion.
Mike

Mike I have no interest in this company other than the fact that are bills in the House and Senate to change its designation from a hearing aid to a prosthetic. The Esteem implant has FDA approval and has been available for over a decade.
I am tired of paying for overpriced hearing aids and hesitant to go the CI route.
Just the thought that I could keep these on all day and go swimming with my granddaughters makes me think maybe they are worth advocating for. Surely you must admit CI’s have drawbacks. Maybe if Medicare paid for these like they pay for Cochlear Implants the millions of seniors with hearing loss could make that decision. Isn’t it at least worth giving them a try. If they are not effective let the market decide that.
The manufactures of Cochlear Implants have powerful lobbyists that would like to keep their monopoly going for those with severe or profound hearing loss.
Maybe there is a better product out there.
Just keep an open mind.
I appreciate your feedback.
