BrightBenefits, a national dental and vision insurance organization, has today launched a hearing savings program. The discount program is available to members through a partnership with Your Hearing Network, a nationwide network of independent hearing care professionals. 

BrightBenefits members, whether dental or vision, get a free hearing exam
and save over 40% on premium hearing aids through the new discount program.

While not an insured benefit, the new offering adds value to BrightBenefits members by providing deep discounts on a wide variety of high-performance hearing aids. Members may now receive a free hearing exam and have access to licensed audiologists and hearing specialists across the country, the latest in digital hearing aids, as well as discounts on devices and accessories, extended warranties, and free hearing aid batteries for devices purchased through the program.

“This is great for members; it’s a strong addition to our dental and vision plans,” said Jennifer Hill, Vice President, Relationship Management for BrightBenefits. “Through this hearing care program by Your Hearing Network, members now have access to even more ways to stay healthy and save money.”

Your Hearing Network will guide participating BrightBenefits members through their entire hearing health journey - from the exam and products, to follow up care and customer service. 

“Hearing is a vital sense that connects us to our families, friends, and the world. Hearing loss is associated with important quality of life issues, such as self- esteem, social connectivity and job productivity”, said Dr. Cindy Beyer, Audiologist and Vice President Contracting and Compliance at YHN. “The consequences of untreated hearing loss are life altering and devastating, posing a significant risk to overall safety and wellbeing. The good news is that hearing aids today are remarkably effective. With artificial intelligence, Bluetooth capability and wireless connectivity, hearing aids are very successful in improving hearing and communication, for even the busiest lifestyles.”

This hearing discount program is now available to BrightBenefits members. To get started, members can visit https://yourhearing.com/plan/bright-benefits or call (833) 826-4705 with their BrightBenefits Member ID number ready.
