| Part III, line 4a (continued) | Our main office in downtown Fort Wayne increased clinic operations to 5 days per week and added a second part-time staff audiologist to manage patient volume. Our Goshen satellite office increased hours to two days per month, and we launched a monthly satellite clinic in Garrett, IN. Hearing Assessment Program: Encompasses diagnostic assessment of hearing function using state-of-the-art equipment, which is appropriate for patients of any age and functional ability. GiveHear receives assessment referrals from other area health care professionals, Indianas early intervention program First Steps, organizations assisting veterans, other nonprofit agencies, and by self-referral. Hearing Aid Rehabilitation Program: Encompasses the selection, fitting, follow-up, and maintenance of new or donated hearing aids. Patients qualify for this program according to adjusted household income and pay for a portion of their device cost based on our reduced sliding fee scale. GiveHear fit 203 hearing aids in 2020 on 119 unique individuals - 119 lives improved through the gift of hearing! Circle of Giving: GiveHear hearing aid recipients on our sliding fee scale complete a set number of volunteer service hours at a nonprofit agency within their community to give back via volunteerism. Because GiveHear relies on community support to execute our mission, our patients give back to the community that supports us and makes their hearing health care possible. GiveHear patients and their families contributed 1,325 volunteer hours in 2020. Hearing Aid Donation Program: We collect gently used hearing aids that can be reconditioned and reprogrammed for our patients. This program serves many of our hearing aid recipients and gives an opportunity for the community to return used hearing aids to our clinic. Newborn Hearing Program: Provides affordable, price-capped follow-up diagnostic testing for babies who fail or do not receive a newborn hearing screening at birth. Using our highly specialized equipment, 157 babies were tested in 2020 through our partnerships with local hospitals, birthing centers, and midwives. School Screening Program: Provides on-site hearing screenings, primarily preschool-aged children attending early education programs for low-income families and/or children with special needs. In an effort to identify hearing loss as early as possible, grant funded follow-up testing in our clinic is also offered for children who do not pass the on-site screening. We partner with BrightPoint Head Start, Associated Churches, and Lions Club. We screened 307 children in 2020 (There were limited screening opportunities due to the pandemic.) Cancer Treatment and Hospice Loaner Programs: Partnerships with Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana, Heartland Hospice, and Visiting Nurse allow us to provide hearing aids for patients undergoing cancer treatment or in hospice care. The loaned hearing aids foster improved communication with family, caregivers, and community. Served 20 patients in 2020. Cochlear Implant and Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) Programs: Provision of sub-specialty audiology services to eliminate access deserts in northeast Indiana. GiveHear is the only regional provider for APD testing and diagnosis as well as the only regional center offering support for Med-El, one of the three implant systems used in the U.S. GiveHear is unique. There are no other similar programs to ours in the region. Only a handful of similar programs exist nationally, some of which GiveHear helped develop at the request of those communities. The effects of undiagnosed and/or untreated hearing loss are significant, detrimental, and can be mitigated or eliminated with appropriate, quality hearing health care. Hearing aids are a highly effective, yet costly tool to counteract the negative impact of most hearing losses. They are designed to improve sound localization, listening in noisy situations, speech understanding, and provide better overall hearing. In fact, 80% of hearing losses can be effectively rehabilitated using hearing aids. According to the American Speech Language Hearing Association (ASHA), less than 25% of people who could benefit from hearing aids actually have them. Oftentimes, cost is the limiting factor. These issues are at the heart of the services GiveHear provides to our community. Our clinics provide hearing screenings, hearing tests, hearing aids and related accessories, hearing aid maintenance and repairs, and follow up care to individuals who otherwise would not have access to these services. Fees for hearing aid services are based on a sliding fee scale according to family size and income, and we primarily serve individuals up to 250% of the Federal Poverty Level. In addition to our nominal fees, we require our financially qualified patients to complete a set number of volunteer service hours at a nonprofit agency within our community. This volunteerism helps reduce social isolation, ensures they are invested in their own hearing health care, promotes self-sufficiency, and builds feelings of self-worth. This is our Circle of Giving program. In addition to hearing aid services, GiveHear also connects with our community via outreach efforts, providing hearing screenings at schools and health fairs. We have identified access deserts for certain sub-specialty audiology services and offer those services locally, ensuring that the community has regional access to a more comprehensive roster of audiology services. |
| Part III, line 4a (continued) | Hearing Screening at Local Preschool and Day Care Facilities: Serving large percentages of low-income families.Loaner Program for Cancer & Hospice Patients: Partnership with Cancer Services and Heartland Home Healthcare to provide hearing aids for cancer patients and hospice patients who have lost their hearing.Satellite Program: In response to requests from audiology practices in other cities looking to begin their own not-for-profit programs in their community, we are providing administrative support and guidance to programs in Toledo, Ohio and Sarasota, Florida. Each satellite raises funds to support its work.Circle of Giving Program: We are not a free clinic. Fees for services are based on a sliding fee scale according to family size and income so that hearing aids are affordable for patients while also requiring them to make a personal investment in their own healthcare. Thus, we require patients to complete a set number of volunteer service hours at a not-for-profit agency within our community to earn sweat equity for their hearing aids. Because we rely on the communitys support to operate our program, our patients give back to the community that has made in possible for them to receive care. Many individuals with hearing loss experience social isolation, whether they realize it or not. It might begin with avoiding large parties or gatherings and trickle down to canceling smaller, more intimate affairs. For those with hearing loss, large groups, noisy venues and dark environments can make it even more difficult to hear, engage in conversation and contribute in social situations. In certain conditions, including age, illness and genetics may all contribute to hearing loss. Approximately 1 in 5 people have some degree of hearing loss. Hearing loss can also have a very real and negative impact on persons economic stability. In Indiana, only half of those struggling with hearing loss are in gainful employment (Disabilities Statistics Compendium, 2014). Among those who are employed, a higher percentage of people with hearing loss are in lower grades of employment, some up to 25% lower, compared to the general workforce (The Hearing Journal). In Allen County alone, it is estimated that over 10,000 individuals living in poverty have hearing loss. With ongoing changes in healthcare the number of individuals needing financial support to obtain individual hearing aids is growing. In summary, our clinics provide hearing screenings, hearing tests, hearing aids and related apparatus, hearing aid maintenance and repairs, and follow up care after initial treatment. We also provide newborn hearing screenings and Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) testing. We fit patients with gently used reprogrammable donated hearing aids collected through our community donation program and we purchase new hearing aids at greatly reduced costs from the manufacturer. We also take our services out into the greater Fort Wayne community with hearing clinics and hearing screenings for folks of all ages. Fees for services are based on a sliding fee scale based upon family size and income. In addition to our discounted fees, we require our patients to complete a set number of volunteer service hours at a local not-for-profit agency through our Circle of Giving program. This community service helps prevent social isolation, ensures investment in our community by our patient, and promotes self-sufficiency and self-worth. GiveHear is a unique program and the only one of its kind in our community and among the first of its kind in the nation. Our experienced audiologist is a licensed professional and follows all standard procedures and requirements in hearing testing and treatment. We verify all of our hearing aid fits with RealEar measurements making sure that the patient is getting a proper fit before leaving their first fitting appointment. |
