CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW????................

The equipment in a hearing aid should cost about $5 dollars.
So now that its over the counter the price should come down under $100 soon.

[Tell It Right]

Wherever you get the hearing aids from, be prepared for them to get lost easily. Gone are the days when they're as big as your big toe. Now they're small, tuck above your ear, and are gray to hide amongst gray hair.

And my mother would lose hers on a daily basis until we tethered them to a clip she puts on her shirt.

Sometimes, it might be cheaper to just invest in some ear-enhancement surgery.

"I caution consumers not to buy without first seeing a professional. The best practice or best care is still to see an audiologist to know your hearing levels. They will help you make the best decision."

So you see the professional, and he tries to sell you the $4-5 thousand dollar set.

My first set cost over $4 grand. My next set was free. I had not known that my VA benefits included hearing aids until my primary care doc clued me in. I had never applied for VA medical because I felt that there were lots of other guys who needed it more than I did, who were harmed by their service and deserved the help.

Saving the thousands of dollars does assuage my guilt some!
