NEW YORK, September, 1st, 2022 — Tuned, an online hearing health company, today announced that it has joined Buoy Health’s innovative healthcare marketplace to bring comprehensive hearing care to Buoy’s more than 2.5M users per month. Tuned joins a vibrant and expanding network of more than three dozen proven health delivery solutions committed to improving access to digital-first care — creating an all-in-one, holistic healthcare pathway from first symptoms to final treatment that delivers quality, cost-effective care for everyone.

“Hearing is critical for effective communication in the workplace. Yet unlike medical, vision, and dental benefits, very few people have access to high-quality hearing care,” said Danny Aronson, CEO, and co-founder of Tuned. “We want to change that. Partnering with Buoy allows us to reach more people and continue our mission of ensuring that hearing care is a mainstream healthcare benefit across the U.S.”

Buoy has revolutionized the digital health landscape by equipping users with free AI-driven tools and reliable information from medical experts to better understand their health issues and match them with the best care solution. Based on their self-reported symptoms, users are served up a personalized slate of care options and selections within Buoy’s healthcare marketplace. As a new member of the marketplace, Tuned will now be featured as an option for users when relevant to their healthcare journey.

“Our top priority as a healthcare matchmaker is to guide people to well-informed, relevant, and timely care sources via our state-of-the-art algorithms and medical engine,” said Adrienne McFadden, Chief Medical Officer, Buoy Health. “Expanding our marketplace partners with innovative solutions like Tuned empowers us to build our promise to curate a diverse range of care options that make a choice of relevant care and choice a reality while keeping usability top of mind.”

Tuned takes a preventative approach to hearing care, focusing on a chronically underserved patient market: working adults and their dependents. Employers who contract with Tuned can offer annual hearing screenings as a specialty health benefit and are only charged for actual per-session usage. Patients who book with Tuned can take a hearing health screening and schedule a virtual consultation with a credentialed audiologist to set up a personalized care plan, making annual hearing screenings as easy as vision or dental checkups.

With more than 175 independent audiologists in all 50 states, Tuned makes connecting with a qualified hearing care specialist via the Tuned 360 Hearing Profile easy, affordable, and accessible.
