I have pretty bad hearing loss, I'm "insured", but after insurance my prescription hearing aids would cost me 12k. I guess I'll add dementia to my bucket list

- keenmaster 3y agoThat’s wild and unfortunate. Just curious: don’t you hit your deductible far before paying the full 12k? Or is there an exception for hearing aids. Also, isn’t the prescription requirement for hearing aids being waved?
- gumby 3y agoIn the US, hearing aids are now available without a prescription or audiologist. From what I've been reading, some are quite good and others are crap, but perhaps you can find something reasonable.
- DANmode 3y agoMany are quite good, drop-in replacements for the doctor-prescibed ones of yesterday. Tuned by you, at home via your phone. I would also encourage you to check them out!
