FREDERICKSBURG, VIRGINIA — In concert with “Better Hearing Month,” Healthcare Technologies and Methods (HTM) has announced the launch of Maudey®, their patented virtual hearing aid assistant created for mature hearing aid patients, their family members and their providers.
Maudey’s national launch for providers of prescriptive and over-the-counter hearing aids will be accompanied by special promotional pricing over the next four weeks. Providers may schedule a video appointment and demonstration at: https://maudey.com/
“Maudey was designed to make using and maintaining hearing aids easier than watching TV. Our mission is twofold: Helping older adults achieve the best possible hearing aid outcomes and satisfaction and enabling their providers to more efficiently offer higher quality, proactive aftercare.”
–Alan Letzt, President & CEO of HTM
According to the company’s announcement, hearing aid users, Maudey offers three unique benefits:
- Available 24/7 on the patient’s TV, laptop or mobile device.
- Engages family members and/or caregivers to provide added patient support and encouragement.
- Promotes patient self-empowerment while forging a better connection with their providers.
“I observed the challenges faced by relatives who acquired hearing aids,” added Stephanie Letzt, Vice President of HTM.” And I was confident there had to be a better way to reinforce the information and guide patients through their journey. So, I worked with Alan and our team of audiologists to compile the essential elements of the product we later named Maudey. Also, we were very fortunate when Dr. Tom Powers agreed to join the HTM team last year as a valued Executive Advisor.”
Maudey, which was developed and successfully clinically tested with support from the National Institute on Aging, has received the industry’s Hearing Technology Innovator Award.
Maudey will be made available on a subscription basis to hearing aid providers that will, in turn, enroll their hearing aid patients and connect with them via Maudey’s video calls, alerts, reports and Noah interface.
