Suggestion that may work for everybody.
Cochlear implants: Have to be put in via surgery, but don't take up an ear slot.
In order to make head surgery less complicated, I suggest a surgical drill to go along side the scalpal and bonesaw.
Drill to head > implant
The cochlear implant just being inserted to the head with the implanter could work, but it seems way less of a challenge then having some roboticist sit there with a drill trying to make a careful incision and control blood loss.
Ideally a doctor may just give someone the auditory headset, unless they're in a specialized role where they need an extra radio channel. That's where the cochlear implant comes in.
Also adding a drill would let people do bone/brain/etc surgery that doesn't involve just cutting.
