Did you know hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can be part of treatment for sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL)?

By increasing air pressure inside a special chamber, HBOT boosts the amount of oxygen that reaches your eardrum and inner ear.

That added oxygen may reduce inflammation, help clear fluid buildup, and protect fragile inner-ear nerves.

If hearing suddenly worsens in one ear, don’t wait—SSHL is a medical emergency, and early treatment gives you the best chance of recovery.

Want the full breakdown? Read our article to learn more about HBOT. https://ow.ly/f6Pk50XAQGL

October is National Protect Your Hearing Month — a great reminder that your hearing health is worth protecting!
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) remains one of the leading causes of hearing loss, alongside age-related changes. Consistent exposure to loud environments — whether at work, during recreation, or from everyday noise — can damage the delicate structures of the inner ear over time.
The good news is that NIHL is largely preventable.
➡️ Use hearing protection in loud settings.
➡️ Take listening breaks.
➡️ Keep volume levels at a safe range.
Protecting your hearing today helps preserve it for years to come!

The news out of Minnesota should stop every Medicare Advantage enrollee in their tracks. The Mayo Clinic, one of the most respected hospitals in the world, is walking away from UnitedHealthcare and Humana’s Medicare Advantage networks starting January 1, 2026.

Mayo’s statement was simple, they’ll keep accepting Original Medicare. Translation, if you want guaranteed access to Mayo, you need traditional Medicare with a Medicare Supplement, not an Advantage plan.

Let that sink in. Two of the biggest private Medicare insurers couldn’t make the numbers work with one of America’s best hospitals.

This is not a Minnesota problem, this is a warning shot.

Advantage plans may still look cheaper on paper, but the fine print, prior authorizations, narrower networks, and reduced benefits, keeps getting worse.

The Mayo decision exposes the flaw baked into Medicare Advantage. These plans depend on negotiated contracts and cost controls, not patient freedom. When hospitals or doctors can’t afford the deal, the door closes on the patient.

Original Medicare, paired with a solid Med Supp plan, doesn’t play that game. No networks, no pre-approvals, no surprises when you need world-class care.

Agents should pay attention. This story will be repeated in other states, with other major hospitals. The message for your clients is clear, if they want the freedom to choose their care, especially from places like Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, or MD Anderson, they need to stay in control of their Medicare, not turn it over to a private insurer.

The Mayo Clinic didn’t change, the math on Medicare Advantage did!

Early detection of hearing loss helps children thrive! Everyone should know the 1-3-6 guidelines:
By 1 month: All babies should have a hearing screening. Most will receive it before they are discharged from the hospital after birth.
By 3 months: Babies who did not pass their screening should receive a comprehensive hearing evaluation by an audiologist to determine hearing levels in each ear.
By 6 months: Babies with confirmed hearing loss should start early intervention.
