Here's what you should expect when you buy hearing aids. Your dispenser should:
- Sell every style of hearing aid.
- Conduct an extensive hearing assessment in a soundproof booth.
- A follow-up test should be created while you are wearing the new aid to determine how well it is working in several simulated situations.
- The initial fitting should be included in the purchase price along with at least two or three visits.
- You should be able to get a copy of your hearing tests.
- You should be given a trial period during which you can return your hearing aid at no cost or for a minimal fee.
- Your contract specifies that you will get all or most of your money back if you return the hearing aid or aids within the trial period.
- This document should also cover the length of the warranty and the cost to replace lost or damaged aids, and specify the policy on batteries.
