An Optometry & Audiology Collaboration |
We channel multidisciplinary teamwork to deliver better outcomes for patients. Through collaboration, our partners provide greater public accessibility and affordability in hearing care. Our goal is that patients will experience healthier aging and greater well-being as a result.
Advancements in technology, and an unmet need for accessible hearing care, have created new possibilities for those seeking hearing care. With the development of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, patients have more autonomy in assessing their hearing, monitoring how their hearing devices are working, and adjusting their own hearing aids, indicating that we are in a new era of patient-driven care. Nevertheless, the need for professional involvement can not be underestimated.
Our Optical Partners are trained through our exclusive EyeCanHear Certification to screen patients using our patented hearing screeners, as wells as in the sales & service of OTC hearing aids. As a result, patients fitted with OTC hearing aids have a greater level support & satisfaction over online retailers.
Through our Eye and Ear Partner Network, we're growing the number of professionals involved in hearing care and building a collaboration between optical and audiology professions. Although we package hearing care solutions specifically designed for optical practices, our goal is to channel business to our audiology partners who register with us. We foster a strong collaborative program in which patients are referred to licensed Audiology Partners. Audiologists benefit from partnering with optometrists by receiving leads for those requiring comprehensive care. This collaboration champions professional care from audiologists and optometrists alike.
We provide Audiology Partners with a vested interest in the success of this collaboration in their areas. As a Workers Cooperative, Audiology Partners have an actual stake in the success of The Co-op. We are a privately held, partner-owned and operated audiology services company headquartered in the US.
In contrast to the growing online distribution model of OTC devices, we play a key role in maintaining a vibrant patient-provider relationship. Please join us in support of your local professionals and in building a new vision in hearing care.
