How to Save Money When Purchasing a Hearing Aid
Purchasing a hearing aid can be a difficult and unbudgeted expense. There are a number of things to consider to reduce the cost when purchasing a hearing aid. After all, most people don’t really want to buy hearing aids, but they need to buy them because they cannot hear adequately without them. This page will provide you with the information and knowledge you need in order to save you money on a hearing aid.
The first thing to consider when buying a hearing aid is the average price of these products. It is hard to estimate the fees involved without knowing the severity of your hearing loss or certain features you may require. A reasonable price for a brand-name, digital hearing aid is anywhere from $1,700 to $2,800. If you think this is too much, there are ways to reduce this cost and ensure that you are paying the lowest price possible for your hearing aid.
A potential way to save money on your hearing aid is to check whether or not your insurance covers any part of the cost of these products. If your insurance policy covers even a small amount of the cost of your hearing aid, you are going to want to take full advantage of this. A number of insurance companies state they “cover hearing aids.” Don’t be fooled, this can sometimes mean it covers a certain amount (usually around $500) and it is your responsibility to pay the rest. Check your insurance policy before deciding on a hearing aid. Nonetheless, every little bit that you can save will make a difference.
Another thing to consider, when purchasing your hearing aid, is to check for support from local organizations. Check and see if you qualify for Veteran’s Administration Benefits. If you performed military services and you can prove that your hearing loss is directly
connected to these services, you may qualify for VA. If you are unemployed because your hearing loss is preventing you from getting a job, check with your State’s Vocational Rehabilitation Department. This company may provide you the hearing aid you need in order to find employment. Civic organizations such as Lions International may also provide you with support to purchase a hearing aid. Check with any of these organizations (even if you’re not sure if you qualify) because there’s a good chance they may reduce the cost of your hearing aid.
One of the most important factors in choosing a hearing aid is the warranty. The warranty will ensure that your hearing aid remains in good condition; otherwise, the manufacturer will repair or replace it for free. Purchasing a hearing aid without a warranty is like purchasing a car without insurance. Without a warranty, if your hearing aid breaks it is your responsibility to replace it and pay for a whole new hearing aid. Most hearing aids are covered for at least one year and up-to a maximum of two years. Many manufacturers offer extended warranties at a certain cost. It is important to read through and fully understand what the warranty or extended warranty offers and exactly what parts of the hearing aid are covered under the warranty.
