Mission: This company is primarily a hearing aid loss and damage insurance company, but also offers additional services to help ensure your uninterrupted hearing health:

• Make your hearing aid purchase easier through our financing program. HELPcard puts the hearing aid your hearing aid professional recommends within reach with affordable monthly payment options.
• Reminder Care, a free program that notifies you when your original warranty is about to expire so you never have to miss a day of being protected.

Service: The HELPcard gives you the buying power to purchase the highest quality hearing aid to correct your hearing loss with affordable monthly payment options (determined by creditworthiness of applicant). It is revolving credit, similar to a credit card, provides fast approvals, is easy to use and provides affordable monthly payments. The interest rate may not be particularly low, but the payment terms can be stretched out long enough to make the payments affordable for you. As with any loan, the faster you can pay it off, the less interest you will pay. However, in the meantime, you will have the hearing aids that you need and may not otherwise be able to afford.

To apply: Ask your hearing aid professional for a HELPcard application, which will take just a few minutes of your time to complete. Your hearing aid professional will submit the application by phone, fax or Internet, and get an answer, fast — while you’re still in the clinic. Once you’re approved, you can purchase the hearing aid you need, and with your HELPcard, spread the cost over affordable monthly payments.
