Subject : Re: Actual Audiologists Salary and Income posted by AudBall on Thu Oct 18, 2007 7:34 am |
| Grossing 6 figures is no big deal, it is the net that matters. In fact it would take an audilogist to gross in the six figure range in order to earn, take home etc 40K. Your covert recommendation to lower prices in order to make more money... kinda of a blame shift. But here is the deal several issues. Audis do not have the ability to bill directly to insurance companies for diagnostic procedures. So essentially if an audiologist wants to be independent from an ENT, the option is hearing aids... Wow Wee, that to me is a sentence more than anything. But if one was to be strictly in the hearing aid busines my advise is to form your own hearing aid company and sub contract out the assembly. Offer the major brands (which also supply you with the parts/pre-wire kits etc) and allow your clients to decide which they want, a generic private label or the big ticket product that is the same as your generic. I also found joining with a buyers group to be benificial in driving down prices too. There are a lot of options. But in most cases, despite the many different manuevers, audiologist just do not make a lot of money. |
