The #1 reason a hearing aid gets so expensive is the custom fitting.

This process only costs about $50 to the dealers, but they charge over $1,500 to the customer for this process!

That is why so many dealers will insist you NEED a custom fitting, because it’s their biggest profit center.

The majority of hearing aid wearers can’t tell the difference between their custom hearing aids and a one-size-fits-all hearing aid.

With the new adaptive silicon materials hearing aids are made with nowadays, you don’t really need a custom fit solution anymore.

Custom fittings were necessary 10 years ago, but not any more. If you go with a one-size-fits-all hearing aid you can save more than $2,500!

 The #2 reason a hearing aid gets so expensive is the extra features.

Just like a car dealership tries to make you spend more by adding on useless features, a hearing aid dealer will do this too.

However if you just want a standard hearing aid, you can often get these for under $1,000.

Unless you need some of the more advanced features such as Bluetooth (which hardly anyone uses), you don’t need to pay more for these features.
