Will you help me find which hearing aid is right for me?

After a comprehensive evaluation and discussion about your daily activities, our licensed Hearing Care Practitioners recommend Beltone hearing aids—discreet, rechargeable, Bluetooth-enabled, or others—that best fit your comfort and budget.

Which hearing aid is better, behind the ear or in the ear?
Both behind-the-ear (BTE) and in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aids offer unique benefits. The right choice depends on your hearing needs, lifestyle, and comfort preferences—local factors in Chula Vista, like humidity or temperature, can also play a role. BTE models are powerful and versatile for moderate-to-severe hearing loss, while ITE styles are custom-molded for a discreet, easy-to-use fit. Our licensed Hearing Care Practitioners will help you find the perfect fit during your personalized consultation.
Should you have a hearing test before buying hearing aids?
Yes — a professional hearing test is the first and most essential step before buying hearing aids. A comprehensive evaluation identifies the type and degree of hearing loss you have — including conditions like speech-in-noise difficulty. Beyond that, it allows licensed hearing care practitioners to design the hearing aid solution that best fits you and your lifestyle.
How much will Medicare pay for hearing aids?
Original Medicare (Parts A and B) does not typically cover hearing aids or hearing aid fittings. However, some Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans may offer partial coverage or discounts for hearing aids and hearing care services. Coverage varies by plan and provider, so it’s important to check your benefits or speak with a licensed representative. We're more than happy to help you review your insurance options and explore financing options. If you have any questions regarding Insurance, financing, or Medicare, please call our Chula Vista office.
Do you have audiologists or licensed hearing care providers on staff?
Yes— we have licensed Hearing Care Practitioners on staff. Depending on your needs, you may be seen by an audiologist or a licensed Hearing Care Practitioner. All our providers are highly trained to perform hearing screenings, fit and program devices, and provide personalized, ongoing care. If you have specific questions about our provider credentials or care approach, give our Chula Vista office a call!
How much do hearing aids cost?
Hearing aid prices typically start around $1,000 per device. The total cost depends on the model, features, and your insurance coverage. We work directly with you to find the best hearing aids for you, and to ensure your budget, insurance, and financing needs match. We carry a wide range of options—including rechargeable, Bluetooth-enabled, and AI-powered devices—to match your hearing needs and budget. We’re happy to walk you through pricing during your free hearing screening and offer flexible financing options to make hearing care more affordable.
How soon can I get fitted with hearing aids after my hearing evaluation?
Depending on the device selected, many of our patients are fitted with hearing aids within just a few days of their screening. Our award-winning team will walk you through your hearing test results, help you select the right device, and schedule your fitting—all on a timeline that works for you.
Do you carry hearing aids that work with iPhone and Samsung devices?
Yes! We carry Beltone hearing aids that are fully compatible with both iPhone and many Samsung Galaxy smartphones. Our latest models—like the Beltone Envision™ and Beltone Serene™—support direct streaming of phone calls, music, and video through the Beltone HearMax™ app. Whether you use an iPhone or Android, we’ll help you choose a model that integrates seamlessly with your device for a clearer, more connected hearing experience.
