Got the ears tested. As an aged pensioner I qualify for a up to $2500 off RRP (I think it was $2500). Anything above that I have to pay the difference. I have 3 to choose from, all Signia (Siemens) units. Pure 10, Pure 312, Pure 13 or Motion 13. The numbers are battery sizes and I'm only looking at over the ear.

Costco have Auditory Services and are an affordable way of purchasing Hearing aids and batteries - They also do Eye testing and glasses supply - If you are lucky enough to have a store near you.

I have the Signia ones you ave mentioned, you can get the ones that are fully covered with the voucher Ive never bothered with the upgraded versions and I have had hearing aids for many years and have never had a problem. If you pay, I think $35(approx) a year, you are fully covered for batteries and any damage done for the entire year. You can't complain about that. I got mine through Hearing Australia with a Commonwealth Gov voucher thanks to my pension.

'Hearing loss has become the third most common chronic disability amongst adults, but most sufferers have never tried hearing aids, and those who have are often not satisfied with the results.'

If you buy dearer ones make sure you advise your insurance company.
