Background
In early 2025, Enticare noticed a growing concern among patients about rising hearing aid costs and insurance coverage confusion. With technology advancing—particularly AI-powered hearing aids—many patients were uncertain about which options fit their needs and budgets.
Challenge
A 62-year-old patient, James L., suffered from moderate hearing loss and struggled with communication at work and home. He was hesitant to purchase hearing aids due to high costs and unclear insurance coverage.
Solution
Enticare’s audiology team conducted a comprehensive hearing evaluation and educated James on the difference between OTC and prescription hearing aids. They explained pricing, financing options, and insurance coverage potential.
By leveraging Enticare’s patient financing programs and in-house consultations, James was fitted with mid-level hearing aids equipped with Bluetooth and AI noise reduction—at 40% lower out-of-pocket cost than he anticipated.
