Four tiers, thoughtfully matched.
Core
For quieter routines, one-on-one conversations, and straightforward everyday listening.
Select
For days that move between home, work, smaller groups, and occasional background noise.
Elite
For regular meetings, restaurants, group conversations, and changing listening environments.
Signature
For frequent time in complex sound environments, including busy restaurants, events, and travel.
Every tier includes professional fitting, real-ear verification, and follow-up care. Features vary by manufacturer and model; your audiologist explains the available options. For broader background on what contributes to cost, see our hearing aid cost guide.
You are not just buying a device.
Comprehensive fitting
A doctoral audiologist programs the devices to your exact hearing profile across a structured four-visit fitting process, not a ten-minute setup.
Real-ear verification
We measure the sound the device actually delivers in your ear canal, the clinical gold standard that most volume-based providers skip. It is the single biggest predictor of whether hearing aids work for you.
Follow-up care
Adjustments, cleanings, counseling, and troubleshooting through your defined care period, in office, and with concierge and remote options when appropriate.
Trial & warranty
A 45-day trial on every purchase, plus manufacturer warranties that typically cover repair and one-time loss or damage. We explain the exact terms before you commit.
Insurance, benefits & pre-tax dollars.
We verify before you visit
Many commercial and Medicare Advantage plans include hearing aid allowances or managed-care benefits (TruHearing, EPIC, Amplifon, and others). We are credentialed with the common ones and check your specific benefit before your appointment. See our insurance page for details.
Pre-tax eligible
Hearing aids and related professional services are qualified medical expenses, so FSA and HSA funds can meaningfully reduce the real cost. We provide the documentation.
Spread the cost
Payment options are available so the right technology is not out of reach. Ask at your consultation and we will walk through what fits your budget.
A fair word about cheaper options.
Over-the-counter hearing aids are real, FDA-regulated devices, and for adults with mild hearing loss they can be a reasonable starting point. What they cannot include is the part that makes hearing aids work: a diagnostic evaluation, professional programming to your exact loss, and real-ear verification. If your hearing loss is moderate or greater, if restaurants and meetings are the problem, or if an OTC device has already disappointed you, prescription devices professionally fit are usually the answer. Bring us your questions, or read our honest OTC hearing aid guide. We will tell you plainly if OTC is enough for your hearing.
