Audioscan |

Looking Back at 2008 …2008 was a great year for Audioscan. We conducted dozens of workshops across the country and had yet another year of sales growth! More and more people are realizing that a hearing instrument fitting system is a business necessity and that the Verifit and RM500SL are best-in-class products. We also introduced the Viewport software update for the Verifit. This suite of four tests allows you to characterize digital instrument performance on one screen or printout. Audibility, directionality, noise reduction, and feedback management are all covered. We believe this “snapshot” of digital performance will become the industry standard for evidence-based practice. As with all Audioscan software updates, Viewport is a free download! Moving Forward to 2009 …
In 2009, we will be releasing an important new update that will allow fitters to test the latest in hearing aid technology. We work hard to provide the tools to objectively measure every function of digital aids, because if there’s no way to measure, there’s no way to fit with confidence. In 2009, we want people to take a fresh look at Audioscan digital instrument fitting systems because, just as digitals have revolutionized the hearing aid industry, we’ve revolutionized the testing, fitting, and counseling of digital aids. Call your representative for a quick demonstration. You won’t be disappointed! Audioscan |

Discovery Hearing Aid Warranties |
||||
Looking Back at 2008 …Discovery Hearing Aid Warranties looks back on 2008 as a year of healthy growth in a challenging economic climate. More dispensers nationwide became part of Discovery’s network because they know the critical importance of protecting clients’ hearing aid investments. Discovery also responded to today’s more cautious consumer by adding emphasis to its 6-month warranty option. This budget-friendly alternative allows warranty owners to pay premiums on a semi-annual basis. Discovery recognized dispensers’ efforts with a monthly incentive program to reward achievements. In addition, the company has kept an industry presence with exhibits at state and national trade shows. Shipping hearing aids to Discovery has been streamlined by using FedEx for its reliability and detailed tracking system. Moving Forward to 2009 …Discovery begins 2009 with a completely redesigned dispenser brochure (shown here), giving new dispensers a complete overview of the warranty program. The brochure uses a series of true-and-false questions and includes an enrollment application. All marketing materials are also provided at no cost. Dispensers who have worked with Discovery find the program helps them generate greater revenues, protect clients’ investments, and foster long-term dispenser-client relationships. A revised incentive program for 2009 will continue to recognize leading dispensers for their efforts. Plans also call for a new consumer brochure to debut in spring 2009.

Frye Electronics |

Looking Back at 2008 …Frye Electronics made major improvements to the FONIX FP35 Analyzer. The FP35 now has a new Integrated Probe Microphone that is smaller, lighter, and more adjustable. In addition, it has a line-in connector for a CD player. That makes it especially useful for the Visible Speech program. Prior to that introduction, new software provided an improved interface with simplified menus and a cleaner display for those who choose EASY rather than Advanced for their MENU choice. In 2008 we started giving the Open Fit coupler free of charge with all new 7000s. The new Probe microphone for the 7000 was introduced, and the Visible Speech program was expanded and improved. Many improvements were made to our computer programs. The much requested DSL 5 targets were added to the FONIX NOAH Real-Ear Module so it can be used with all 7000s and current FP35s. (This module can also be used with 6500-CX and FP40 units, provided they have the RS232 Connection and the required software version.) The FONIX NOAH Audiometer Module was also improved. “Auto Baud” functionality helps the user automatically detect and connect to the FONIX Audiometer. The pop-up Menu feature provides great User interface improvements.
Our instruments were displayed at many meetings, including the AAA, the IHS, and the EUHA, as well as many other smaller meetings. Moving Forward to 2009 …Frye Electronics has been chosen by NAL (National Acoustics Lab in Australia) to build and sell HEARLab. This device will be used to fit hearing aids on infants using Cortical Auditory Evoked Potentials. Tonal stimuli and speech sounds are used. It will also be very useful for testing adults or special needs children whose responses to normal testing are unreliable. We expect to be able to market it early in 2009. There is a great deal of interest in it because it is easy to use and has been well tested by the people at NAL. Frye Electronics |

Looking Back at 2008 …This year marked a number of milestones for worldwide hearing implant leader MED-EL and the technological breakthroughs that the company brought to the US market. A highlight was the launch of the MAESTROâ„¢ Cochlear Implant System. In addition to hearing in “high definition” with FineHearingâ„¢, the MAESTRO system offers the smallest internal implant and the thinnest, lightest, externally worn speech processor available, the OPUS 2. Approved by the FDA in April, the OPUS 2 is the first speech processor designed for switch-free operation, with special features for bilaterally implanted listeners.

The company will continue its research efforts surrounding “hybrid” technology Electric-Acoustic System (EAS) and expanded indications for the VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE® Middle Ear Implant, both current US clinical trials. As always, surgeons, audiologists, and implant recipients will benefit from working with MED-EL’s clinical team of audiology specialists to advance the field of hearing implant technology.
