An interesting story in the New York Times a little over a year ago related the journey of a woman who had broken the shell of one of her hearing aids. Shocked at the price of hearing aids from private audiologists—at least $2,000 for a set, and usually $3,000—she sought another solution. Learning that about 70 percent of this price is retail mark up, the woman searched online and found hearing aids available at reputable online stores—such as Audicis or Costco—for as little as $399. Searching a little more, she found an audiologist who offered to repair the shell of her old hearing aid for $100. So, that’s the choice she made.
One of my daughters is an audiology grad student nearing degree completion so anybody needing services should send me a PM. Her opinions are free & candid, and she's quite the Whiz Kid with all "the latest news."
