Why Self-pay?
Why Self-pay?
"Self-pay" means to pay for a sound processor on your own without using your insurance benefits. There are a few reasons you may decide to self-pay for a new sound processor - maybe you don’t have insurance coverage or maybe you don't meet your insurance plan's guidelines for replacement processor coverage. If you don’t want to wait to experience the benefits of the latest in sound processor technology and you want to take advantage of the discounted self-pay price, paying out-of-pocket might be right for you.
