Hearing Benefits

 


TruHearing logo

You may have already felt the need to get your hearing checked. Have your friends and family been asking if you have hearing loss? Do you get frustrated in noisy environments and social settings because speech sounds muddy? It might be time to get your hearing checked.  We believe that hearing loss is too important to your health to let it go untreated.

 

You have access to a variety of the latest high-quality, affordably priced hearing aid models and styles: everything from small, virtually invisible customs to the latest rechargeable models that will help you stay connected to life from breakfast to bedtime and beyond.

 

Our hearing care partnership with TruHearing® makes it more affordable for you to treat your hearing loss. At full retail, hearing aids can cost up to $2,000–3,000 per aid, but TruHearing can help you save thousands on out-of-pocket costs.

 

As part of our partnership, a TruHearing network provider will help you determine the best type and style of hearing aid to address your lifestyle and unique hearing needs.

 

To help you take steps towards improving your overall wellness, we've provided you with a hearing program through TruHearing® 

 

Services must be provided by a TruHearing provider

 

This program ensures you save 30-60% off average retail pricing.

You can  further reduce your out-of-pocket costs by combining these savings with your hearing aid allowance of:

  • Hearing Exam ($0 copay)
  • $750 per hearing device per ear every 2 years

 

Buying your hearing aid through TruHearing gives you peace of mind with:

  • Hearing exam with a TruHearing network provider ($0 initial exam copay)
  • 1 year of follow-up visits after purchase for fitting and adjustments
  • 60-day risk-free trial
  • 3-year manufacturer warranty for repairs and one-time loss and damage replacement
  • 80 free  batteries per hearing aid (for non-rechargeable models)

 

If you are experiencing hearing loss, we hope you’ll take the next step toward better hearing.  To schedule a hearing exam with a provider in your area, call TruHearing at  1-855-739-8256.
