Strong member and employee health drives stronger organizations. By investing in hearing care, you safeguard well-being, enhance workplace safety, and boost productivity—while keeping costs predictable and under control.
Hearing loss is a serious health issue in the workplace, and exposure to loud noises and other hazardous conditions can lead to permanent and irreversible damage. By offering a high-quality hearing benefit that includes affordable hearing aids, a nationwide network of hearing care providers and access to hearing health care services, you can boost productivity and keep your members and employees healthy and at work.
Union members may be at high risk of hearing loss due to their daily exposure to loud noise levels. Construction, manufacturing and transportation workers are especially vulnerable to hearing damage, leading to a variety of negative consequences, including reduced productivity and increased absenteeism.
By partnering with Amplifon, union funds can maximize their health and welfare benefits by helping members take the necessary steps to treat their hearing loss, ensuring workers remain safe, productive and satisfied with their jobs. The result is happy and healthy union members and stronger member acquisition and retention rates due to high-quality union benefits that protect them now and in the future.
When employees have access to hearing health care, they're 44% more likely to seek support for hearing-related issues sooner¹ that may be impacting their ability to communicate with colleagues and perform their jobs effectively. Plus, they'll know their employer has their best interests in mind for their health and well-being, increasing job satisfaction and retention.
Addressing hearing health concerns early helps prevent more serious issues from developing later on, which can significantly lower health care costs for both the employer and the employee. With a flexible and affordable hearing benefit from Amplifon, your plan can do just that!
Discover the difference a dedicated hearing health partner can make. With Amplifon Hearing Health Care, your members and employees receive tailored support, nationwide access to quality care, and benefits designed to meet their unique needs—today and into the future.
Your members can enjoy peace of mind during their next hearing evaluation. Our providers agree to charge fixed prices on hearing devices based on our formulary. So, whether your members are receiving care in one state or another, they can expect the same price and cost savings with an Amplifon hearing benefit.
In fact, with Amplifon's fixed, transparent pricing, paired with our global purchasing power, members and employees can save nearly 70% on average² on hearing aids. Each hearing aid also comes with a 60-day risk-free trial, a three-year warranty for loss and damage, follow-up care and more.
The bottom line: Your members can easily access their hearing benefit when they need it while reducing downstream health care costs.
We know your members are busy at work. That’s why our US-based care team is here to help — whether it's explaining their hearing benefit, scheduling a convenient virtual hearing quiz, booking a hearing exam or supporting them in using their hearing devices.
We want to partner with you to help members achieve their health goals and have the flexibility to address any concerns related to their hearing early on.
We protect your members through our exclusive universal provider reimbursement rate, which enables providers to focus on personalized care rather than maximizing provider profits. For members, this means no surprises or feeling pressured into purchasing hearing devices they don't want or need.
Instead, they know they're getting the best care possible from their provider, thus fostering a healthier patient/provider relationship.
When members use their hearing benefit, they reduce the risk of experiencing costly, life-altering health concerns, including depression, injury-causing falls, tinnitus, or vertigo that affect their ability to work effectively and communicate with others on the job. If hearing loss remains untreated, the risk of physical injury increases as does absenteeism due to people not being able to hear or missing critical signals that impact their safety or the safety of their co-workers.
With an Amplifon hearing benefit added to your benefits, your team gets the hearing care they deserve, when needed, to pursue healthier lives and get back to the jobs they love without interruption.
At Amplifon, we serve as your single, trusted partner for all things hearing health—streamlining administration, simplifying management, and supporting your team every step of the way. Our strategic account management isn’t just about oversight; it’s about building a lasting relationship that keeps your organization informed, supported, and ahead of your members’ and employees' needs.
We also deliver turnkey, strategic multi-channel outreach campaigns—at no cost to your plan—that inspire members and employees to take action. From co-branded materials to coordinated messaging, we work hand-in-hand with your team to deliver the right message, at the right time, through the right channels. The result: higher engagement, better outcomes, and a benefit program your members and employees truly value.
For years, we’ve stood alongside union funds and public sector employers, delivering hearing benefits that protect member health, strengthen workplace safety, and respect budget priorities. We understand the unique challenges you face—and we’re ready to put our experience to work for you. Whether you need a dedicated union hearing program or a customized benefit for your employer-sponsored plan, we’ll partner with you to ensure your members and employees have access to the care they deserve today, while preparing for the needs of tomorrow.
