TruHearing and SHOEBOX Partnership: A New Era in Hearing Healthcare

TruHearing, a leading name in the hearing health industry with the largest market share, has recently entered a significant partnership with SHOEBOX, a pioneer in hearing screening and testing technologies. This collaboration aims to address a pressing issue in the United States—access to affordable hearing healthcare.

In a startling statistic, nearly 80% of Americans have not had their hearing tested in the last year. Among those diagnosed with hearing loss, the financial burden of treatment remains a considerable obstacle. The newly launched TruHearing Hearing Aid Advantage Program seeks to mitigate these challenges, particularly for SHOEBOX's customers in occupational hearing conservation. This program offers a comprehensive solution, extending beyond mere diagnosis to encompass treatment, ensuring that employees and their families have access to crucial hearing health services.

Bridging the Accessibility Gap

The partnership between TruHearing and SHOEBOX emphasizes the need for preventative care as an integrated part of a broader approach to hearing health. Through SHOEBOX's advanced hearing screening technology, individuals can regularly assess their hearing health, which is a vital part of early detection and management of hearing loss. This technology is designed to be user-friendly and effective, ensuring that screenings can be conducted with ease and accuracy.

The financial aspect is equally crucial. Average hearing aid costs exceed $4,600 per pair, often leaving patients in distress over expenses related to their healthcare needs. This new collaborative initiative presents a promising solution by offering discounts on premium hearing aids from manufacturers such as Signia® and Widex®, together with the utilization of TruHearing’s large network of over 8,850 contracted hearing provider locations across the United States. This comprehensive access amplifies opportunities for individuals to receive help without overwhelming financial strain.

A Two-Pronged Approach to Hearing Health

The primary goal of the TruHearing Hearing Aid Advantage Program is not only to provide immediate access to affordable hearing aids but to create a seamless journey through the entire medical experience, from prevention, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. This initiative also acknowledges that 79% of employees show a keen interest in obtaining hearing healthcare, yet a mere 10% currently have access to such benefits through their employers.

Trent Sterling, the CEO of TruHearing, noted, "This program will add significant value by making hearing healthcare more accessible to employees and their loved ones. It reflects our mission to reconnect people to the richness of life and empower them to take charge of their health."

A Shared Vision for Quality Hearing Care

As part of WS Audiology®, both organizations can harness global experience, innovation, as well as purchasing power, ultimately enriching the offerings available to patients. SHOEBOX’s Strategic Sales Initiative Manager, Alyson Bush, expressed her enthusiasm for the partnership's potential to transform hearing care access, stating, "This innovative program will strengthen hearing care for those who need it most, making it easy and affordable to safeguard hearing health."
