Send us a textAchieving a hearing aid return rate below 1% isn't accidental—it's the result of thoughtful systems and genuine patient care. Drawing from years of successful private practice experience, this episode unpacks strategies that transform patient outcomes while strengthening your practice's financial health.Financial barriers represent a significant obstacle for many potential hearing aid users. By implementing flexible financing options tailored to patient needs, you remove a major reason for hearing aid returns while expanding access to hearing technology. But addressing affordability is just the beginning...the consultation process itself determines much of your success. Through motivational interviewing techniques that replace closed-ended clinical questions with deeper explorations of patient goals, you create the foundation for successful fittings.The patient experience extends far beyond the initial fitting. We explore how comprehensive onboarding systems—complete with educational materials, structured follow-up schedules, and even customized resources like podcast episodes that address common questions—transform the hearing care journey from a transaction into a relationship. When patients feel part of a supportive program rather than simply purchasing a product, they become invested in their success and less likely to return their technology.Audiological best practices aren't just clinically responsible; they directly impact satisfaction rates by ensuring optimal performance. By setting realistic expectations about adaptation periods and guiding patients through what to expect, you establish appropriate benchmarks for success. Perhaps most importantly, recommending appropriate technology based on comprehensive assessment—not assumptions about what patients will spend—ensures they receive maximum benefit from their investment.Ready to transform your practice's approach to patient care and reduce your return rate? These strategies will not only improve your performance metrics but fulfill our deeper mission: ensuring more people with hearing loss receive the treatment they need to live fuller, more connected lives.

Send us a textEver wondered why some hearing aids feel invisible while others never quite sit right? The secret lies in the impression-taking technique—and Ray Woodworth is the master.Ray joins Dr. Douglas Beck on the Hearing Matters Podcast to reveal the artistry behind deep canal impressions. As a Board-Certified Hearing Instrument Specialist at Starkey's Center for Excellence, Ray has tackled some of the most challenging fittings nationwide, refining techniques that transform patient experiences."The ear is the boss," Ray emphasizes repeatedly. This fundamental philosophy drives his approach to custom fittings, respecting each ear's unique anatomy rather than trying to force technology where it doesn't belong. His insights overturn common practices—revealing why cotton trumps foam for blocking, and why video otoscopes revolutionize the processThe conversation demystifies technical aspects like material viscosity and shore values while making a compelling case against the overreliance on dome fittings. Ray explains why he opts for custom solutions 80% of the time when many practices do the opposite, demonstrating how proper canal impressions deliver superior sound direction, better retention, and often improved cosmetics.Most fascinating is the window into the factory perspective, where Ray's experience troubleshooting thousands of challenging cases has crystallized into a knowledge, tools, and skills (KTS) approach that any hearing professional can adopt. For practitioners and patients alike, this episode illuminates why those few extra millimeters of impression material can make the difference between hearing aids that transform lives and those that sit unused in drawers.Want to elevate your fitting technique or understand why your hearing aids might not feel quite right?
