How much do hearing aids cost?
What is the price of hearing aids? It’s a question we get asked a lot – and the answer isn’t too simple.

The price of hearing aids depends on several factors including: your type and level of hearing loss, your hearing aid model, technical features, your health insurance, location, and the type of hearing aid you choose.  The only person who can give you an exact cost for hearing aids is your local hearing professional.

But as for the true price of hearing aids – their actual value - there’s a lot we can say. That’s because a lot goes into that price. After all, hearing aids are not just aids for hearing. Hearing aids are incredibly advanced, high-tech computers.

The price of hearing aids isn’t measured by just the plastic core you can see on the outside. Inside most hearing aids are five main components:
  • A microphone
  • An amplifier (or a signal processor)
  • A microchip
  • A receiver (also known as a loudspeaker)
  • A battery
Put all these together and you have a device that can make even people with the most profound hearing losses hear speech like never before. It’s hard to put a price tag on hearing.  Hearing aids also aren’t simple amplifiers, so the price of a hearing aid can’t be defined by simply looking at it.

**The price of personal service**

The modern technological components factor into the price of a hearing aid – but they aren’t all that goes into the value of your hearing solution. The price of hearing aids also includes a high level of personal service.

At Widex, we invest a lot in making sure that our hearing professionals have the skills and training to fit your hearing aids. Professionals use specialized equipment to measure your hearing loss type, degree, and shape. They can also examine your ear and refer you back to your doctor if you have any physical ear problems. This level of service does add to the price of hearing aids, but it’s necessary for ensuring that your hearing aids work best for you.

If you do have a hearing loss your hearing care professional will then tell you which types of hearing aids are available for you and will program those hearing aids to meet your specific needs.
