Most consumers don’t know where to begin when purchasing hearing aids. If you’re new to this, there are many paths to take from self-treating to seeking the services of a professional.
The monetary cost of hearing aids can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars. A portion of your expenditure depends on the technology you choose.
In our experience, it’s not only about the device. When a hearing aid is fit and measured properly, your success will be amplified. Sometimes you can get lucky with a pair of over-the-counter hearing aids. It’s one way to get started. But the extra service and attention of an Audiologist is a good investment.
If you seek personalized care, a portion of your financial commitment may include treatment and follow-up visits.
Cost of product and cost of care can be dissected, commonly referred to as unbundling. It’s also a choice to pay for services as you need them. You also have the option to bring us hearing aids you have purchased elsewhere to be evaluated for benefit and in many cases, readjusted.
Keep in mind that hearing is one of your five senses. Your sense of hearing keeps you socially connected, impacts your brain health, reduces stress and anxiety, improves relationships and provides a measure of safety. And that is the abridged version to describe the benefit of better hearing.
