Life is better when you can hear it

Hearing changes can happen gradually, making hearing loss difficult to self-diagnose. In fact, most people are not able to identify a 'normal' level of hearing or dectect their own level of hearing loss without the help of a hearing care professional. If you find that hearing changes are impacting your life, relationships, work, or everyday interactions, now is the time to take the first step towards better hearing.

 

Amplifon can guide and support you every step of the way.

Hearing loss is common

60% of Americans (about 28.8 million) have some level of hearing loss who could benefit from hearing aids. You could be one of them.

Why get your hearing tested?

A professional hearing exam is a great way to understand your level of hearing loss. It is useful for: 

Early detection
A test identifies sounds you may be missing
Hearing health monitoring
Track changes to your hearing over time
Peace of mind
Determine if further testing or aids are needed

5 signs of hearing loss

One early sign is misunderstanding people speaking to you, leading to miscommunications. If you often mistake what people say, it might be time for a hearing test.

If your family, friends, and coworkers have voiced that you talk too loudly, and your music and television habits follow suit, it may be time for a hearing test.

If you often have difficulty differentiating between who’s speaking to you in a noisy environment, you could be in the early stages of hearing loss.

Asking others to repeat themselves is not only frustrating to those talking to you; it can start to make you feel uncomfortable. People suffering from hearing loss often nod and smile when people talk, even if they're not catching a word.

Tinnitus is frequently a hearing loss symptom, especially for those with noise-induced hearing loss.

Your Hearing Health is an Investment

If you or a loved one are considering hearing aids, remember that you’re not just investing in a device but in your overall health, including your mental and physical health. At the end of the day, your hearing health is worth prioritizing.

How can my union benefits help offset hearing care and hearing aid costs?

Having hearing benefits through your union can significantly help reduce costs in several ways:

Some benefit plans cover the cost of hearing exams, which can help with early detection of hearing loss and reduce the need for more costly interventions later.

Some health insurance plans may cover part or all of the cost of hearing aids. 

If your union benefits and health insurance plans do not cover the full cost, it may offer reduced pricing to help lower out-of-pocket costs for purchasing hearing aids.

With benefit coverage, you may be able to afford more advanced hearing aids with more options for noise reduction and speech enhancement as well as features like health tracking, AI technology and more.
