    FAQs

    How often do you need to replace a hearing aid receiver? ›

    If you take good care of your hearing aids, they should last five to seven years.

    What is or are the benefits of having a health plan? ›

    All health insurance plans through Covered California cover essential health benefits, including laboratory services, prescription drugs, hospitalization, maternity and newborn care, mental and behavioral health, emergency services and more. No matter how young or healthy you are, no one is immune to accidents.

    How much does it cost to replace a receiver in a hearing aid? ›

    $60.00 plus parts (e.g., replacing a receiver is $150.00) if your device is out of warranty and we can fix it in the office. $370.00 per ear if the manufacturer's warranty has run out on your device and it must be outsourced to a hearing aid lab.

    How do I know if my hearing aid receiver is bad? ›

    Your audiologist should be able to definitively determine if the receiver wire should be replaced but some common symptoms are that the device is weak, faint, distorted, crackly or produces static, intermittent, or completely non-functional.

    Why is health care so expensive? ›

    The complexity of the U.S. healthcare system can lead to administrative waste in the insurance and provider payment systems. The consolidation of hospitals can lead to a lack of competition or even a monopoly, granting providers the opportunity to increase prices.

    How does lack of insurance affect health care? ›

    Lack of health insurance coverage may negatively affect health. Uninsured adults are less likely to receive preventive services for chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

    What is the average life expectancy of a hearing aid? ›

    Hearing aids can last for up to 10 or 12 years, but the average lifespan of a hearing aid is about 5 years. In that time frame, it is possible that your hearing needs will change, and your needs may even outgrow your hearing aids before then, especially with all of the modern advances in hearing aid technology.

    Why is my hearing aid receiver not working? ›

    If your hearing aid is still not working properly, you may need to look at the receiver tube and/or Ear Wire speaker for a blockage. If it is dirty or blocked, clean the tube and/or change the wax guard. Lastly, check the microphone for dirt that may be preventing the sound from being picked up.
