A method comprising: selectively fitting, by a fitting subsystem (202, 502) using a first sound processor (104, 504, 704-1), a first cochlear implant (110, 702-1) and a second cochlear implant (110, 702-2) to a cochlear implant patient, wherein the first sound processor is associated with the first cochlear implant, wherein the first sound processor is used, by the fitting subsystem, to communicatively couple the fitting subsystem to the first cochlear implant in order to fit the first cochlear implant to the patient, and to communicatively couple the fitting subsystem to the second cochlear implant after a communicative decoupling of the fitting subsystem from the first cochlear implant in order to fit the second cochlear implant to the patient; automatically segregating, by the fitting subsystem, fitting data generated during the fitting of the first cochlear implant from fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant; and transmitting, by the fitting subsystem, the fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant to a second sound processor (104, 504, 704-2) associated with the second cochlear implant after the fitting of the second cochlear implant to the cochlear implant patient is completed so as to enable the second sound processor to operate in accordance with the fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant, wherein the first sound processor is communicatively decoupled from the fitting subsystem and the second sound processor is communicatively coupled to the fitting subsystem; and wherein the first sound processor and the first cochlear implant are part of a first cochlear system associated with a first ear of the patient and the second sound processor and the second cochlear implant are part of a second cochlear system associated with a second ear of the patient, thereby fitting the first and second sound processors to the patient, which includes adjusting one or more control parameters by which the first and second sound processors and the first and second cochlear implants operate. selectively fitting, by a fitting subsystem (202, 502) using a first sound processor (104, 504, 704-1), a first cochlear implant (110, 702-1) and a second cochlear implant (110, 702-2) to a cochlear implant patient, wherein the first sound processor is associated with the first cochlear implant, wherein the first sound processor is used, by the fitting subsystem, to communicatively couple the fitting subsystem to the first cochlear implant in order to fit the first cochlear implant to the patient, and to communicatively couple the fitting subsystem to the second cochlear implant after a communicative decoupling of the fitting subsystem from the first cochlear implant in order to fit the second cochlear implant to the patient; automatically segregating, by the fitting subsystem, fitting data generated during the fitting of the first cochlear implant from fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant; and transmitting, by the fitting subsystem, the fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant to a second sound processor (104, 504, 704-2) associated with the second cochlear implant after the fitting of the second cochlear implant to the cochlear implant patient is completed so as to enable the second sound processor to operate in accordance with the fitting data generated during the fitting of the second cochlear implant, wherein the first sound processor is communicatively decoupled from the fitting subsystem and the second sound processor is communicatively coupled to the fitting subsystem; and wherein the first sound processor and the first cochlear implant are part of a first cochlear system associated with a first ear of the patient and the second sound processor and the second cochlear implant are part of a second cochlear system associated with a second ear of the patient, thereby fitting the first and second sound processors to the patient, which includes adjusting one or more control parameters by which the first and second sound processors and the first and second cochlear implants operate.
