A hearing aid is an investment in your future. With the purchase of your device you’ll also receive:
- Unlimited follow-up visits
- Unbundled vs. bundled options
- Batteries
There are a wide variety of hearing aid manufacturers, types of hearing aids and price tags, which may make the process of choosing a hearing aid seem daunting. At Victory Hearing & Balance, we will help you determine the best treatment plan with financing options and payments to help fit your budget.
Making the Right Choice
A patient may choose a hearing aid based on appearance and functionality.
Completely in-canal and in-the-canal hearing aids are not highly visible, but also do not include directional microphones. The smaller devices cannot hold as large of batteries and may not help with moderately severe to severe hearing loss. In-the-ear and behind-the-ear hearing aids, though more visible, can be more effective for those with profound deafness.
You need to take into account a variety of factors when choosing a hearing aid; these include personal preference, lifestyle needs, technology options and price tag. There is no one-size-fits-all option when it comes to hearing devices.
Cost vs. Value
Hearing aids range in price based on the type of hearing loss they treat and the technology required to match your lifestyle.
While higher tier technology comes with a larger price tag, there are many features that wearers find essential. Today’s newest devices can connect to your smartphone and TV via Bluetooth® so you can stream calls, music, your favorite shows and more. In addition, some models offer rechargeable batteries and auto-adjustments when you enter a new listening environment.
Happiness from Hearing Aids
When you shop for hearing aids, be sure to consider all your needs, not just budget. Purchasing low-tier technology will work for some, but if you have a more complex or profound hearing loss, you will not achieve your full hearing potential with baseline technology.
