Audiologist - Bangor ME

Overview

Are you a Licensed Audiologist looking to take on an assessment role?

Would you find it rewarding to serve the Veteran community?

We are looking for an Audiologist to perform medical assessments on United States Veterans as part of the VA's disability benefits process.

The Veteran files the claim before they see you. All of their medical records are uploaded into a computer portal and you will be able to review these during the appointment. You will conduct a Maryland CNC Test and Puretone Audiometric test. The Audiologist will complete a Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) in the computer portal. This forms the medical evidence that allows the VA to decide the veteran’s benefits.

Audiologist will NOT prescribe any medical treatments or devices.

This position will review and assess 3-6 Veterans per day on average.
