"We could not have been more pleased with working with Walmart.com to help them promote our affordable high quality hearing aids and hearing assistive products," said Matthew Moore, CEO of InnerScope Hearing Technologies. "We are proud to have Walmart.com choose our hearing aids and hearing assistive products for their customers. With the current average cost of hearing aids running about $5000.00, a set, it's no wonder why there are only 7 to 8 million Americans that currently use hearing aids when there are over 48 million that have reported some hearing loss and could benefit from using hearing aids or some hearing assistance. InnerScope's agreement with Walmart.com gives the Company and Walmart.com the opportunity to sell the 48 million Americans an affordable alternative to the traditional high cost of hearing aids at 75% to 80% less than the current average cost. Not to mention, the revenue potential is off the charts for both the Company and Walmart.com. Each person has two ears, that's 96 million potential hearing aid sales," continued Mr. Moore.
"We know the cost of hearing aids is just too high for most people that need them. However, there is even a greater cost that very few ever know about. The 'real' cost is much higher than the actual dollars spent. Those approximately 42 million Americans that suffer from hearing loss and can not afford to purchased hearing aids are potentially at high risk and in fact could be jeopardizing their overall health and well-being. Proper auditory stimulation from the use of hearing aids may reduce health issues associated with of untreated hearing loss, including cognitive issues, such as Dementia and Alzheimer's disease. We believe with Walmart.com as retailer of InnerScope's hearing products, more people will recognize the need to treat their hearing issues sooner than later and thereby reduce unnecessary health risks, due to untreated hearing loss," Mr. Moore concluded
