Below are the three most common
statements patients make:
Reason #1: “It’s too good to be true!”
The medical treatment of hearing loss has significant, positive implications for your cognitive (brain) and overall health. While this may seem ‘too good to be true’—it isn’t. Science has found that the treatment of hearing loss is the single most modifiable factor for the prevention of Dementia; the treatment of hearing loss can significantly improve cognitive function; the treatment of hearing loss can dramatically reduce your risk of falls, etc., etc. The list goes on! We see these benefits in nearly every patient we work with.
Our focus is on you—and your healthcare. We are so confident in our ability to treat your hearing loss and cognitive deprivation that your SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED. If you’re not completely thrilled with how your treatment is impacting your overall quality of life and with the exceptional service you receive in our office, simply say so and I will refund your entire investment. No questions asked. We wouldn’t have it any other way.
Reason #2: “We’re not ready to make any major purchases”
Actually, a lot of people say this to our doctors. We understand that the process can seem overwhelming—being diagnosed with significant hearing loss (a progressive and degenerative disorder) can do that to you! But it is critical to bring medical treatment at your first diagnosis, as continuing to deprive your brain of the proper stimulation leaves you at significant risk of auditory and cognitive deprivation. We pride ourselves on being able to offer multiple options for our patients to afford treatment. As a doctor, my priority is your health, and my team of Patient Care Coordinators will help work out a financial plan that works best for you and your family.
Our patients tell us the hardest part of audiology treatment was taking the first step and getting started. After the initial appointment, the benefits of improved hearing, clarity, and cognitive function will last a lifetime. Your investment in hearing health care can easily be one of the best decisions you ever make for yourself or your loved one!
Reason #3: “We’d rather not spend this amount right now”
And you don’t have to! We have worked hard to make sure that every patient can begin treatment and manage any associated costs. While it is unfortunate that most insurance plans do not offer any benefits, we offer a variety of ways to offset any costs. How much you will have to pay out of pocket depends on several factors, including the advanced hearing technology recommended, the procedures involved, and of course, the specifics of your insurance policy (unfortunately most insurance companies do not cover the cost). One way many of our patients pay for their treatment is by utilizing creative benefits. For example, using their Flexible Spending Account (FSA), financing at 0%, using tax returns, and even using the cost towards their medical expenses benefit on their tax returns.
The investment in hearing and cognitive healthcare is such a great investment in your health, your brain, your family, and you… that it will literally pay for itself 1000x times over—it just does not make sense to wait.
Your next step—call our office and make the commitment to a better, healthier you—live that long, active, fulfilling life you and your family worked so hard for.
