The Joint Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH) is recognized both nationally and internationally for its role in shaping public health policy
with regard to early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) programs.
![Page 3: Developing JCIH Recommendations o n Quality Infant Audiology Services (Q*IAS)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813ab8550346895da2bf77/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
First position statement in 1970 - JCIH advocated for early detection of hearing loss.
JCIH Year 2000 Position Statement - provided principles and guidelines for quality EHDI programs along with benchmarks and
quality indicators for newborn hearing screening, assessment and intervention.

JCIH 2000 offered broad suggestions regarding the
knowledge and skills needed by audiologists providing
services to infants and young children.

However, there has been no specific
direction offered by a nationally recognized professional group that
would assist state EHDI coordinators or primary care physicians in
identifying qualified providers of
infant audiology services

JCIH Q*IAS Recommendations will address:
• availability and use of current assessment technologies;
• timely and appropriate selection, evaluation and monitoring of acoustic amplification and, in some cases, candidacy for cochlear implantation;
• competency in counseling;
• awareness of all communication options open to a family of an infant with hearing loss or who is deaf; and,
• knowledge regarding public health and education laws including eligibility, accessibility and covered services.
![Page 32: Developing JCIH Recommendations o n Quality Infant Audiology Services (Q*IAS)](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813ab8550346895da2bf77/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Overriding aim - to influence decisions/referrals made by Early Intervention programs at the state and local levels; thereby,
• leading states to recognize quality providers of infant audiologic services;
• supporting the development of service delivery models that ensure infants and families receive appropriate services;
• facilitating the possible development of specialty recognition by professional audiology associations; and,
• providing guidance to pediatricians who must seek quality audiologic services as they coordinate care of an infant with hearing loss through the medical home.

JCIH will seek approval from the professional organizations represented by the Committee to publish and disseminate the document
• American Academy of Audiology, • American Academy of Pediatrics, • American Speech-Language-Hearing
Association,• American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head
and Neck Surgery, • Council on the Education of the Deaf • Directors of Speech and Hearing Programs in
State Health and Welfare Agencies
