Leader in Hearing Aids in Decatur, AL Offers Essential Hearing Services Amid COVID-19

Decatur, Ala. – Beltone USA, the nation’s leading hearing care provider, announced that it now offers real-time video hearing care appointments and free replacement batteries by mail. As the leading provider of hearing aids in Decatur, AL, the company aims to reduce the need for in-office visits at a time when older, more vulnerable populations are advised to stay at home in these uncertain times.

The Beltone Foundation is providing one pack of hearing aid batteries by mail to anyone who is unable or uncomfortable going to an office to purchase them during this unprecedented time. To identify the hearing aids battery size, Beltone advises patients to look at the current battery for the color and number on the battery as zinc-air hearing aid batteries come in color and number coded packages that designate the size of the battery inside. Yellow for Size 10, Brown for Size 312, Orange for Size 13 and Blue for Size 675, and Beltone USA is offering each of these sizes.

For those seeking a consultation with a hearing doctor in Decatur, AL, Beltone Remote Care Live gives hearing care professionals the ability to both consult with patients via video and to remotely make hearing aids adjustments through the Beltone HearMax phone app in real-time.

“We are fully committed to helping our patients through this difficult time and have accelerated the launch of this service to do exactly that. Remote Care Live becomes even more important as patient access to in-person hearing care is limited as communities across the country implement various “stay home” policies to help minimize COVID-19 spread,” says Monte Dillow, president, Beltone.

“We’ve seen the growth of telemedicine in many medical settings, but it has been a recent introduction to hearing care,” Dillow continues. “With Beltone Remote Care Live, we really take it to a new level, making it easier on our patients and their families to access the hearing care they need.”

Beltone USA continues to follow the guidelines established by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and is using every precaution recommended in cleaning their facilities and equipment. The health and safety of their patients are as important to them as their commitment to better hearing.
