My mother and aunt both need hearing aids but are very strapped for cash, living on social security. Is it easy to find the right hearing aid with results of test in hand. Or to put it another way, is it practical for a layman to read the results and come up with the right aid at a place like ebay?
I know nothing about the proper choosing of a hearing aid and since they are in their 80s I’d have to go there for them.
the ones I have seen are kinda progammable, although you probably will not need programmable ones at all...you do not take ear molds for these, there are ones that have soft rubber tips in 3 sizes....I am going to go this way this year ( insurance usually does not cover hearing aids, and VA will only accept a 10% responsibility for my hearing loss ) so I am on my own. If they want behind the ear aids they are more readily available and more versitile than CIC, but I still work and use the phone alot, so CIC is the only way I can go at this time..just type in hearing aids on ebay and browse around for new ones
