Historically, hearing aids have been reserved for those with substantial, often handicapping, hearing loss. Research, however, now shows that even slight hearing difficulties can negatively impact one’s quality of life, ability to communicate and socialize, and work performance. Over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids are designed to address this growing population.

But with this innovation comes confusion; personal sound amplifiers (PSAPS) and OTC hearing aids join the alphabet soup of existing hearing aid options of behind the ear (BTE), completely in the canal (CIC), or receiver in the canal (RIC), to name a few. If your head is spinning, you’re not alone.

With Tuned, employees can consult with audiologists, THE hearing and communication specialists of healthcare, who draw on years of experience studying and working with all hearing assistive options. The audiologists at Tuned are uniquely positioned as they have kept a keen eye on emerging technology, even trying many of these devices firsthand, to properly vet the Tuned marketplace and ensure that only quality devices are included.

Let the experts do the research for you and guide you through your options. With the peace of mind that all offerings were independently vetted, you can rest assured that only the best is being recommended. From there, the choice is yours.
