How much does an audiology website cost?
+
We quote one fixed price, agreed before work starts, based on the number of pages, features, integrations and content. You get it within 1 business day of a free audit of your current site. There is no hourly billing.
Should our website show hearing aid prices?
+
We recommend at least price ranges by technology level, what a package includes and your trial terms. Patients on r/HearingAids say clinics that will not quote lose them to sellers who do. You decide what to publish and approve every number.
How should our site handle OTC hearing aids?
+
Explain who they suit under the FDA rule, why a hearing test first is worth it, and the fitting, programming and service visits you offer people who buy their own. That page brings in patients who would otherwise never call.
Can patients book a hearing test online?
+
Yes. We either build a short booking request form or connect to your scheduling system where it supports online booking, through vendors that sign a Business Associate Agreement. We confirm what your system allows before we promise it.
Do Medicare patients need a doctor's referral to see us?
+
For certain non-acute hearing assessments, no: since 2023 Medicare lets audiologists see patients without a physician order once every 12 months, billed with modifier AB. Original Medicare still does not cover hearing aids. We write the page with your billing lead so it matches how you work.
We get most patients from physician referrals. Why invest in the website?
+
Referred patients still look you up before they book, and MarkeTrak 2025 found only 22% of people with hearing difficulty got a hearing aid recommendation from a doctor. The rest find you by searching, often through a family member. A physician referral page also makes it easier for doctors to send patients.
Can we keep using our manufacturer's marketing program?
+
Yes, if it suits you. We build a site you own under your name, list the brands you fit, and can host co-op campaign pages on it. Your domain, content and tracking stay yours whichever program you use.
Is our audiology website HIPAA compliant?
+
No website is HIPAA compliant on its own. We build forms, booking and call tracking with vendors that sign a BAA, keep ad pixels off booking pages and send conversion events with no health details. Your HIPAA program stays yours.
Do we need ADA or WCAG accessibility?
+
The Justice Department says the ADA applies to the goods and services businesses offer on the web, and practices that receive HHS funds such as Medicaid have Section 504 deadlines in May 2027 or May 2028 for WCAG 2.1 AA. We build every site to that target, with captions on all video, which your patients need anyway.
How do we show up in Google Maps and AI answers?
+
A page per location that matches your Google Business Profile, reviews linked from the site, plain-text answers about prices, OTC, Medicare and trials, clinician bios with credentials and MedicalClinic schema. Nobody can guarantee a ranking or an AI mention, but a specific, consistent site gives them accurate facts to use.
How long does an audiology website take, and who owns it?
+
Most take 4 to 8 weeks; groups with several locations or a large catalogue take 8 to 12 weeks. You get a dated week-by-week plan and a written update every week. You own the code, design, content, domain and every account from day one, with no lock-in.
What makes you different from another audiology web design company?
+
Many audiology web design companies sell a shared template on a monthly contract, often built around a featured manufacturer. We build a site you own outright, under your name, with prices, trial terms and OTC help written plainly, HIPAA-ready forms and tracking that separates new hearing tests from service calls. The terms are in writing first: a fixed quote in 1 business day, a dated plan and no lock-in. The same tracked lead system took Blues Renewables, a local service business, from no tracked leads to 7 to 10 inquiries a week.
