The best hearing aid prices

Do you often have to ask people to repeat themselves or find that you need the television volume turned up significantly? If the answer is yes, you could be one of the 28.8 million American adults who could benefit from wearing hearing aids.

Hearing aids can have a profound effect on your quality of life, enabling you to maintain relationships and keep doing the things you enjoy.

The average cost of purchasing a hearing aid can range from around $1,000 up to $4,000. How much you pay for your hearing aids will largely depend on where you purchase them from, the brand, model, technical features and functions, size and fit of the hearing aid. The price you pay for your hearing aid covers more than just the hearing device itself. You are also paying for:

• Hearing evaluation and consultation
• Fitting
• Follow-up appointments
• Adjustments and cleaning
• Warranty
• Batteries

There are many types of hearing loss, and as a result, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to purchasing hearing aids. When you begin your hearing aid shopping, keep in mind these top hearing aid brands:
