The worldwide price of cochlear implants has been kept artificially high through a pattern of kickbacks that the US government found illegal. These payments to clinicians and audiologists control the referral patterns for CI and as RAND and others attest, keep the price out of reach for thousands of CI candidates.

I would like to know if there is any significant development made by DRDO on cochlear implants.

Hi Subir, I am very interested in this initiative of making Cochlear Implants affordable and would like to initiate discussions with you on this subject. I work with a company based out of Bangalore, India called Medived which makes advanced medical technologies affordable for emerging markets. We currently manufacture implantable devices such as pacemakers as well as implantable leads, programmers and PSAs at our facility. Please let me know if you are interested to chat further on the subject. Thanks.
