Do hearing aids have to costs $10,000 per pair? The costs of all electronics are falling so why not hearing aids? The answer lies in where you purchase the hearing aid. An Apple Ipod costs around $150 at a local electronics store. What if you had to buy the Ipod from a doctor – how much would it costs then? A lot more.

Until recently all hearing aids had to be purchased from an Audiologist. Audiologist apply huge mark ups to what they sell. They need to in order to cover their rent, staff and years of education. The internet is quickly changing how things are done. For example, Audiologist sell the Siemens Artis 2 Life for $3900each. It can be purchased at www.openfitonline.com for $999! The Siemens Cielo 2 Life sells for $3400 and can be purchased for $820!

As always, it is very important that you checkout any internet company that you are thinking of dealing with. Also research the companies return policy. The internet is truly making things affordable that once were out of reach.
