Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause
interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital
wireless phones sometimes do because of electromagnetic
energy emitted by the phone's antenna, backlight, or other

are more immune than others to this interference noise and
phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system
for wireless phones to assist hearing device users in finding
phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the
