Episode 2228 notes Shannon Schneller knows why most people don’t come in with mild hearing loss and wait until they have moderate hearing loss. “But moderate hearing loss responds very well if it's treated it's just so much easier if we can catch it mild to moderate than if the loss goes to severe hearing loss”.  She will tell us why you could lose more of your ability to discern speech the longer you wait and the hearing aid will be less effective once loss has gone on too long. Today, we explore the Hearing Aide Experience , and if you think you’re too young, the fact is, untreated hearing loss can start as early as 35 years old.

Episode 2225 notes How Healthy is your hospital? Many rural hospitals either close or they are taken over by a large group. But Abby Summers and Kerry Trapnell from Aletheia have a much better plan for rural hospitals that is making them stronger and helping them succeed, lead and grow. We'll discuss 340B for rural hospitals and how it works, how to go from losing money to breaking even and making a profit at your rural hospital, and how both of my guests share a passion for Aletheia Health Partners’ mission to improve the operations and sustainability of rural hospitals.
