What
is the Universal Hearing Plan?
Universal
Hearing Plan is a discount benefit program available to employees
though their employers, local business associations or medical
insurance companies. AHAA has established strong contractual
relationships with several third party payers and hearing
aid benefits plans. We are committed to serving managed care
organizations and their constituencies and believe that AHAA's
network of over 2,000 offices nationwide is uniquely suited
to meet the needs of the managed care patient.
Who
is AHAA?
The American
Hearing Aid Associates (AHAA) is a national network of independent
audiologists, hearing aid dispensers, universities and hospitals.
AHAA represents the nation’s largest, highest quality
and most accessible hearing health care network to both our
members and their patients. AHAA was established in 1995 as
a hearing health care organization to allow hearing professionals
to remain dedicated to their patients’ best interests.
Our membership includes over 2000 offices located throughout
the United States and continues to grow daily. Unlike other
organizations that have ownership of several of their members’
practices, there are no wholly-owned AHAA clinics. AHAA cannot
exercise any leverage to force their members to dispense products
from a controlling-interest manufacturer. In this way, the
AHAA purchasing co-op includes over 30 hearing aid manufacturers
and our members are free to dispense whichever manufacturer’s
products they feel can best serve the needs of their patients
without limitations or restrictions.
All AHAA
members are licensed by their state to perform diagnostic
and or dispensing services. Our requirements for membership
are based on what we believe promises a high quality of hearing
health care and rehabilitative services to all patients. Future
enrollments are based on the recommendations of current AHAA
associates who are highly regarded within the medical community.
