Add Value to Your Benefit Package with EPIC
The EPIC Hearing Service Plan (HSP) is an important addition to your benefit package. In fact, with more than 32 million Americans − 11 million of whom are younger than age 50 − afflicted by hearing loss, a hearing benefit is a welcomed addition to employee benefit plans.
And, the value of a hearing benefit is only increasing as:
- Today more than 15% of Baby Boomers (ages 45-64) have hearing loss; as they age, this percentage will rise rapidly.
- The majority (65%) of people with hearing loss are below retirement age, according to the Better Hearing Institute.
EPIC's fully insured health benefit assures your clients access to high quality providers with defined standards of care at fixed and pre-negotiated rates.

“This is a great program to demonstrate to your clients the value you bring as a health insurance professional. I generally discuss the Hearing Service Plan during a renewal or quarterly meeting with my clients, and it is received with very positive results.”
