Hearing Aid Insurance Benefits

Do you have hearing aid benefits with your health insurance plan? Many insurance providers are now adding
hearing aids to their list of benefits. Like anything else....some of the plans are good and some are not so good.

What you should know..........

• Very few plans actually pay for hearing aids.
• Most plans are a discount guarantee.
• Some plans will cover a portion of the cost while you cover the balance.

Some health insurance companies offer hearing aid benefits that are administered through a separate company that is owned by a major hearing aid manufacturer. Hmmmm, imagine that! It isn't a"bad thing". It isn't illegal. But, you should understand your benefits and know that you are not restricted by them.

If your benefits offer quality product choices and quality providers to fit and service the product, you should feel good about helping yourself and your family through better hearing. Don't be afraid to go outside your health insurance plan if it doesn't offer what you need. Do what is best for you and your hearing needs.  

Too Many Adjustments????????

We'll evaluate your hearing and your hearing aid settings for the best possible performance, even if you bought them elsewhere. Call us at 386-265-4769

Pearl Harbor Day. Thanks to ALL veterans for your service.

Today it was my honor to take care of 94 year old Pearl Harbor veteran Wayne Shaffer. Mr. Shaffer wears GN ReSound Alera with the Unite TV streamer and Unite mini-mic. Thank you Mr. Shaffer.  

This could be you.........

Every day should start this way. My first appointment was a follow up to a fitting done last week. Her hearing loss was not typical in any sense, and her lifestyle was demanding. I fit her with two GN ReSound Verso hearing aids. I let her barrow a remote control in case she would want to make adjustments. She handed the remote control back to me and said " I didn't have to change a thing. They were as natural and comfortable as I could hope for. Leave them just the way they are."

I admit  not everyone does as well as quickly as this patient did. But it is becoming common place in this office for patients to be comfortable and satisfied after their initial fitting. Expert testing, product selection,  fitting expertise, and follow up care create a patient experience that is unmatched.
 
Are you're spending too much time getting adjustments made to your hearing aids? I may be able to help you get more out of your current hearing aids. While you're here I can demonstrate what Verso can do for you. Call us at 386-265-4769. There is no obligation. Hear the difference.

Thanksgiving Holiday History

On October 3, 1863 President Abraham Lincoln delivered a written proclamation to declare the last Thursday in November a national day of thanksgiving. Lincoln's proclamation gives recognition of the great blessings our creator God has bestowed on our people and our land. He also said we are prone to forget the source of our bounty. Lincoln is clear in his proclamation as to who we should give thanks. Lets us humble ourselves and be thankful to Almighty God.

"First Class Service"

Are you dissatisfied with your hearing health care provider? You're not alone. Some of the biggest complaints I hear from new patients to my office that have hearing aids from somewhere else are:
1. There is a different person working every time I go in for service.
2. They had a big ad with lots of locations....but the location I go to is only open 2 days a week.
3. Now that I'm past the 30 day trial they don't want to see me anymore.
4. They seem nice enough but they just are not able to help me.

You deserve first class service, and you deserve a full explanation of your hearing loss and what expectations are realistic for your case. Each patient has a unique hearing loss and lifestyle. Physical and visual concerns also factor into being fit properly. We'll explain all of the choices available to you and help you make "your" best decision.

If you are not receiving the care and service you deserve.......Call me. We can service most brands.
