STATMENT RENDERING

MAB's Accessible Braille Services group converts monthly bills and account statements to Braille, large print and audio CD, serving some of the largest banks, credit card providers, utilities and phone companies in the United States.  The vision impaired customers that benefit from this service live all over the U.S. and Canada.

Approximate usage per number of customers:

Approximately 0.25% of the nation's population are "legally blind".  This includes the range of visual impairments form total blindness to sight of 20/200 after corrective lenses.  Active Braille readers make up about 15% of the "legally blind" population.  Large print users account for about 55% of this same population.  To determine the population or total potential customer base, who are Braille or large print readers, use the following calculations: 

Braille Participants = Total Population x .0025 x .15

Large Print Participants = Total Population x .0025 x .55

Our experience suggest that approximately 25% of your customer, who are Braille and large print users, will actually subscribe to the "special" alternate printing services you may offer.  Therefore, the participant numbers calculated above would be multiplied again by 25% to get a more realistic number.  For example, every 1,000,000 customers in service area, you can expect to have approximately 94 Braille and 344 large print subscribers once your special services are fully underway.  These numbers are only estimates and will vary with your publicity efforts  (1,000,000 x .0025 x .15 x .25 = 94 Braille; 1,000,000 x .0025 x .55 x .25 = 344 large print).

Braille, large print, and audio CD statements will be printed or recorded in Charlotte, NC, and mailed directly to the visually impaired customer.  Newsletters or inserts may also be produced for visually impaired subscribers, and mailed along as supplements with each customer's statement.
