getting hearing aids

November 13th, 2019 at 07:07 pm

I had another hearing test and it was determined it was borderline. So they suggested hearing aids. Because of my insurance covering it 100% I am rushing forward with it before it probably changes January 1st. Typical because who knows what is going to be covered. I am hoping to finish this by the end of the year.

I will admit it's a bit annoying that medical plans always change every year. That you only know what will be that year but next year who knows?

    Good Luck, Living - i've heard that COSTCO is wonderful for purchasing and servicing hearing aids. They seem to be much less expensive. Take care.

    I bet you will love hearing better! My husband probably needs them, but he keeps passing his hearing tests somehow. And what a blessing they are covered.

    Good luck with them, and smart move jumping on the opportunity while your insurance covers them because those babies are not cheap.

    Nope. And perhaps I don't need them 100% full time but coverage now means that I can get used to it. Plus honestly I really need it mostly in social settings is when I notice problems. It's always been that way.

    That's quite normal. As our hearing declines, we have more trouble distinguishing speech from background noise. So in a social setting like a party or a restaurant, it gets harder to "hear" the person speaking to you because it blends in with all of the other noise present in the room.

    I will second the COSTCO recommendation. My son and my ex both got hearing aids there and are pleased.
