Is time running out on<br />
your deductible?<br />
Most medical deductibles reset at the beginning of the year.<br />
Now may be the best time to have your hearing tested!<br />
The end of the year marks many occasions...<br />
The end of the holiday season, the beginning of a new year and the sense of renewal<br />
that it brings, and for most people the best time to use your health insurance benefits.<br />
Deductibles typically renew on January 1st. Whether your health insurance is through a<br />
group or individual, the end of the year can be the best time to schedule appointments<br />
and save money on healthcare.<br />
Have you had your hearing tested in <strong>2018</strong>?<br />
For most Americans over age 50, hearing testing is recommended as a part of their annual<br />
healthcare routine. However, most will wait until difficulty with hearing becomes<br />
apparent before scheduling an appointment.<br />
Hearing impairment is very common. In fact, today, 1 out of every 6 baby boomers (ages<br />
53-71) currently has a hearing loss. Luckily, early detection, prevention, and treatment is<br />
better than ever with modern technology!<br />
Peter Lucier has served San Luis Obispo County for nearly 20 years. While things have<br />
changed quite a bit over the years — especially hearing aid technology — our approach<br />
has remained the same, which is that of a small, family-owned business that treats its<br />
patients like it would its own family members.<br />
Symptoms of<br />
Hearing Loss<br />
• Requiring frequent repetition.<br />
•<br />
conversations involving more<br />
than 2 people.<br />
• Thinking that other people<br />
mumbling.<br />
• Frustration and exhaustion<br />
from conversation while<br />
straining to understand<br />
speech.<br />
•<br />
environments like crowded<br />
rooms, shopping malls, etc.<br />
• Long term exposure to loud<br />
noises or environments<br />
• Reading lips or relying on<br />
reading lips for comprehension<br />
• Turning up the volume on the<br />
television or telephone<br />
