True to our mission, Merit Hearing is pleased to offer low-cost economy hearing aids. This program features entry-level hearing aids designed to compete with the personal amplification device market. These hearing aids feature a customized fit and many of the same features of more advanced hearing aids. However, these devices offer less sophisticated processing, particularly in places with background noise. These hearing aids are still made by the major hearing aid manufacturers we know and trust in the hearing healthcare field. These are not the same as over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, since they are only available through a licensed hearing aid provider and must be professionally fit based on your specific hearing loss.
Economy hearing aids are a good option for several types of people:
- People who are new to hearing aids but would otherwise not pursue devices.
- Those who are unlikely to be full-time hearing aid users.
- People who will mainly use their hearing aids within their home, or other quiet environments with minimal background noise.
- Instances where purchasing more expensive hearing devices are not compatible with lifestyle and budget.
- For caregivers purchasing for someone at high risk of neglecting care of the devices such as individuals with cognitive limitations or dementia.
Economy hearing aids will be professionally adjusted by one of our audiologists based on your hearing loss. We include a limited service contract for all economy hearing aids. This means that you can return to Merit Hearing as many times as you’d like for no additional charge to get the hearing aids adjusted.
Entry-level hearing aid prices are listed below. The prices include a hearing aid consultation, the hearing aid(s), a hearing aid fitting and orientation, and limited follow-up services.
