The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Data System is used statewide by audiometrists, audiologists, and schedulers to support approximately 100,000 children across Iowa, from early childhood through school age. The system offers end-to-end functionality, including scheduling appointments, sound booth sessions, screenings, and rechecks; tracking assistive technology devices and their repair history; collecting detailed test and assessment data; storing learner-level documentation; and monitoring recommendations and progress over time.

Developed in close collaboration with audiologists and subject matter experts across Iowa, the system was built to meet the real-world needs of both providers and learners. It launched for full statewide use in August 2024, and we continue to enhance it through new features, regular updates, and ongoing support.
