Hearing benefits have become a staple of many health plans. And for good reason: Nearly 40 million Americans are experiencing hearing loss. But not all hearing benefits deliver equal return on investment for your members and your organization.
Research shows that hearing loss is a risk factor for life-altering health conditions, including depression, dementia and injury-causing falls. And when hearing loss goes untreated, medical costs go up — to the tune of $22,434 per patient, with health plans covering $20,403 of this amount.

A hearing benefit should address hearing loss comorbidities by providing access to a high-quality provider network that delivers unbiased, evidence-based care. Members who receive this level of care are more likely to wear their hearing aids and enjoy all of the benefits of amplification.
Creating a great member experience has never been more important, especially for Medicare Advantage plans aiming to grow and retain members. Choosing the right hearing benefit supports your goal to meet and exceed member expectations.
Getting more from a hearing benefit is within reach. It’s time to take a closer look at a partnership with Amplifon Hearing Health Care, where we’ve redefined the hearing benefit to deliver more — high-quality, affordable hearing health care, a focus on overall health and an exceptional member experience. That’s Hearing. Amplified.™
