by | Jul 27, 2023 | Hearing Aids, Patient Resources

“How much do hearing aids cost?” 

If you’ve been doing the research, you’re probably struggling to find a clear answer to your question. 

Whether you’re seeking information for yourself or a loved one, you may have noticed that many clinics are reluctant to disclose their pricing. This can be due to concerns about competitors gaining access to their prices or the desire to discourage price comparisons between different providers. 

That’s where we’re different.

So, do you want to see our prices? We’ve laid them out in detail on this page. 

Price-shopping is always smart, but you have to know what you’re getting for the amount of money you’re investing. There is a significant difference between what we deliver and what many of our local competitors offer. 

Give us a moment to explain what we mean. 

Not All Hearing Aids Are Created Equal

Quick question: How much does a car cost? 

More than likely, you responded with

“Depends on what you’re buying.” 

You know that a standard-feature car or truck that fits your simple needs costs far less than one with upgraded and custom features. Well, hearing aids are similar. 

Hearing aids come in a variety of styles and levels of technology and can be customized to meet specific needs. Consequently, a basic hearing aid with standard features is going to cost far less than one with more advanced features. 

You have to ask yourself several questions when you price-shop for hearing aids, like: 

  • Will they help my specific type and severity of hearing loss? 
  • Will they fit in with my lifestyle? 
  • What am I getting for the money I’m investing? 
  • Will I get any support or additional service after making my investment? 

Before jumping on a pair of hearing aids because they’re a great bargain, let’s try to answer these questions. 

What Is Hearing Care Really About?

Most people assume that better hearing is the result of finding the right hearing aid to fit your needs.  

While the right hearing aids can make a difference, it’s really about the people who help you choose the right hearing aids and then supply the necessary support to ensure that you get all of the benefits they provide. 

Since 2011, we have helped thousands of people to achieve better hearing using great hearing technology coupled with a great team of hearing care professionals focused on hearing health. 

We see our relationship with you as a partnership, with the mutual goal of prolonging your hearing health and helping you enjoy a better quality of life. 

We’ll make sure that your hearing aids: 

  • Address your specific type and severity of hearing loss and are programmed to provide you with the most benefits 
  • Are a good fit with your lifestyle and personal preferences 
  • Give you the most value for your investment 
  • Are properly maintained to ensure that they’re addressing your hearing needs

Our price packages include hearing care that is customized to address your unique needs, which is the reason we have nothing to hide when it comes to providing you with a price for your hearing aids. 

Some Free Advice About OTC Hearing Aids

MarkeTrak’s 2022 survey reported several positive trends in the hearing aid industry, like:  

  • 83% satisfaction rating among hearing aid users  
  • 60 is the average age of hearing aid users  
  • People are waiting only four years before purchasing their first hearing aids, rather than the previous average of six years 
  • The stigmas attached to wearing hearing aids are disappearing 

While we applaud the fact that people are waking up to hearing aids as a viable option for better hearing, the survey provides another message that we want to drive home.  

are we your perfect fit
“The best solutions for consumers’ hearing difficulties will be found when the consumer initiates their journey with the help of a hearing care professional.” 

In contrast to our ongoing support, over-the-counter (OTC) and online hearing aids are little more than widgets you have to figure out how to work on your own. 

When it comes to self-diagnosis and self-treatment of your hearing, you’re rolling the dice with OTC hearing aids. 

Is bargain-hunting really the right way to approach your hearing health?
