What Do You Pay For When Buying a Hearing Aid?
When purchasing a new hearing aid, don’t assume the device price tag is the only consideration for your overall costs.
You may wonder why the value of a hearing aid does not appear to be in the sum of its physical parts. We often value items, like jewellery, by the material elements they contain.
However, the value of a hearing aid goes far beyond its components.
Consider the advanced technology and research that goes into creating a device that can improve your hearing and ultimately enhance your quality of life.
Additional costs may be associated with fitting, programming, and maintaining the device over time.
Are services for the wearer, like annual hearing tests and earwax removal, included in the price of the devices?
Will you see the same audiologist at your follow-up appointments?
Considering these factors is essential when deciding which hearing aid provider suits you.
Remember, investing in your hearing health is an investment in yourself and your future experiences.
Hearing Aids Require Services to Support the Wearer
In addition to manufacturing the device, hearing aids require many services to work optimally for the wearer.
The services include:
- full diagnostic hearing tests
- fitting and setting up the hearing aid
- personalised counselling
- follow-up adjustments and tuning
- replacement moulds (if applicable)
- cleaning and servicing
- repairs.
That’s why it’s vitally important you understand what’s included with the purchase of hearing aids.
At Ear Health, you’ll never wonder what services and support you are entitled to or how to access them.
Hearing Aids Do More Than Amplify Sound
Most people think a hearing aid amplifies sound. However, they do much more than that.
Modern hearing aids take all the sounds in the environment and process them to help you understand speech.
You’ll be able to hear conversations better, watch TV without turning up the volume too high, and listen to music without distortion.
Hearing Aids Are Medical Devices
One key difference is hearing aids are medical devices regulated by Medsafe, the New Zealand Medicines and Medical Devices Safety Authority.
A large percentage of the value of hearing aids is the technology they contain and the personal support behind the medical device to ensure it functions optimally for you.
Hearing Aid Manufacturers Invest in Research and Development
Hearing aid manufacturers invest in research and development to improve the real-world performance of hearing aids and widen their appeal.
One example is Sonova which owns Phonak, Unitron and Hansaton. In the 2020/21 financial year, Sonova invested 177.9 million Swiss Francs or 290.7 million New Zealand Dollars in research and development (R&D).
At least five other manufacturers compete with Sonova, collectively known as the big six, and all invest similarly in R&D.
