ISELIN, NJ – Signia today announced that its CIC Rechargeable Custom IX, Silk IX, and Active Pro IX hearing aids are now available to audiologists within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) treating military veterans, as well as the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the Indian Health Service (IHS) – further expanding its Integrated Xperience (IX) platform portfolio to deliver a more complete range of custom and instant-fit hearing solutions.
With these additions, the Signia IX platform available to VA audiologists is now complete, spanning custom devices, instant-fit options, and traditional RIC and BTE styles – all on a unified portfolio built for real conversations. This enables audiologists to select the right form factor for each patient without changing workflows or re-learning systems, while maintaining consistent clinical performance across fittings.
Sheena Burks, AuD, WSA Chief Clinical OfficerAt Signia, we are committed to supporting VA, DoD, and IHS audiologists with solutions that reflect how care is actually delivered—at scale, under time constraints, and across diverse patient needs. With this expansion of the IX portfolio in the VA channel, audiologists can now fit both custom and instant-fit solutions within a single platform, giving them greater flexibility, including same-day fitting options, without adding complexity or compromising on clinical performance.
Powered by RealTime Conversation Enhancement – proven to deliver a 22% improvement in speech understanding in noisy group conversations compared to leading competitors – the expanded IX portfolio helps veterans stay engaged in conversations with family, peers, and care providers, particularly in the complex listening environments that define daily life.1
New additions to the IX portfolio now available to VA audiologists include:
For VA audiologists, instant-fit solutions remove the need for earmold impressions, reducing fitting complexity and enabling faster, same-day care across a high volume of patients.
Together, these solutions give audiologists the flexibility to tailor fittings based on patient needs – whether prioritizing discretion, connectivity, tinnitus management, or a fully custom solution – while maintaining a consistent clinical workflow across all devices and addressing a broader range of patient requirements within a single platform.
“All patients don’t fit into a single form factor – but audiologists shouldn’t have to change platforms to meet every need,” said Burks. “By bringing custom and instant-fit solutions together within the IX platform, we’re helping audiologists spend less time navigating processes and more time focused on delivering care – within a single, consistent workflow.”
Signia IX is Signia’s fourth-generation hearing aid platform available through the VA channel, providing audiologists with a trusted and familiar foundation they can rely on across fittings and patient profiles.
