It’s no secret: hearing aids are notcheap. The average hearing aid price falls between$1,000 to $5,000. But, when you break down those dollars, the cost of these tiny pieces of technology is more reasonable than it may seem at first glance. The daily cost oftwo hearing aidsis $1 to $7 per day, based on a 3- to 5-year lifespan.
When you factor in both theimmediateandlong-term benefitsof a quality hearing device and enhanced hearing health, such as better communication with loved ones, improved brain function, more positive work performance and boosted mental and emotional wellbeing, hearing aid prices are well worth it.

FAQs about hearing aid prices
How much do Miracle-Ear hearing aids cost?
Miracle-Ear hearing aids cost anywhere from $1,000 to $8,000. This is a big price range, and many factors affect the final price tag—including customizations and technology features. You can find more specific pricing information on various Miracle-Ear hearing aid models in the chart at the top of this page.
Can you buy hearing aids online?
While there are over-the-counter (OTC) hearing devices available on the market, Miracle-Ear hearing aids cannot be purchased online. They must be purchased in-person at a Miracle-Ear store. Here’s why: When you book an appointment at your local Miracle-Ear hearing aid center, you’ll receive a free hearing test from a licensed Hearing Care Professional (HCP). They’ll assess and talk you through your level of hearing loss, recommending the best hearing aids for your unique situation. They can also help you pick any additional features you may like to suit your lifestyle preferences and needs. You’ll receive all the personalized guidance you need to find the best hearing aids for your needs.
In contrast, when you purchase hearing aids online, your experience is much more “DIY,” since you have to navigate the experience without an expert. You may think you’re saving money—but in reality you’re getting a product that hasn’t been fitted to your unique hearing needs and doesn’t include lifetime aftercare with a licensed hearing professional. When it comes to hearing aids, shopping in-person with a licensed professional is always best!
