Although hearing aids are typically not covered by most insurance or Medicare, a few insurance companies may provide some coverage so we recommend that you contact your insurance company first. If they do provide some coverage, we will give you the necessary codes and documents to submit to your insurance company. If no coverage is provided, we at Raritan Valley Audiology do fully understand the financial constraints of paying out of pocket. We are committed to your health and are here for you, committed to help find hearing solutions that work, within a budget that works. We offer a wide selection of digital hearing aids, from simplest models for the budget conscious to the state of the art fully programmable models with Bluetooth capabilities to seamlessly sync with a wide assortment of today’s electronics for those who demand the latest of technologies. In addition to budget conscious models, we also understand that perhaps a payment plan might be more attractive to some of our patients, so we participate in CareCredit financing (http://www.carecredit.com/hearing) which offers flexible monthly payment plans.

There are a number of other purchase options which can be custom tailored to meet your individual situation, all of which are designed to make hearing clearly again more affordable than ever. Rest assured, whatever your situation may be, Raritan Valley Audiology is fully committed to helping our patients find the best solutions to meet their hearing needs.

If you are not experiencing fluctuations with your hearing, an annual audiologic evaluation is typically sufficient. If you ever feel that your hearing has changed, it is recommended to have your hearing checked as soon as possible, especially if you also are experiencing dizziness symptoms. If you use hearing aids, appropriate adjustments in programming will be made so that the aids are functioning at the most optimal level for you. Just be sure to have an appropriate referral or prescription from your physician for the evaluation.

We fully appreciate that getting hearing aids may be a new and uncomfortable situation for many. We are fully committed to making this transition as seamless and comfortable as possible. We will be with you every step of the way. Initially, you may notice the hearing aid in place for the first few days; similar to the physical sensation of new eyeglasses sitting on the bridge of one’s nose for the first time. It is important that you realize that the brain needs time to adjust to the new sounds, and you need time to adjust to physically using the aids as well. However, you will be surprised at how quickly your body and brain adjusts to the physical and acoustic feelings of the hearing aids. Since we are committed to ensuring that the aids are both comfortable and beneficial for you, we will be working with you closely and adjusting the aids as necessary during this transition period. In addition, we offer a wide variety of hearing aids, with varying sizes and fitments that will make finding the best one for you easy. For the very few patients who still feel that the hearing aids are not providing benefit to them, worry not, there is a thirty day trial period. If you decide to return the hearing aids, you will receive the balance of what you paid, minus a small restocking fee. However, we are certain that for the vast majority of patient’s, a return will be the last thing on ones mind!

Just as the computers which once took up entire rooms with their bulky hardware have shrunk to the size of a thin spiral notebook, the same technology has allowed for hearing aids to shrink as well, while offering never before heard clarity. Raritan Valley Audiology offers a wide selection of hearing aids with various fitments, including tiny behind the ear (BTE), in the ear (ITE), in the canal (ITC) and completely in the canal (CIC) which are perfect for those who demand subtlety. We even offer a variety of stylish custom colors and patterns which cater to the fashion conscious.
