VA Benefits for Veterans
Eligible veterans can receive hearing aids at no cost through VA audiology services. This is one of the most comprehensive hearing benefits available. Contact your nearest VA facility or visit va.gov/health-care/about-va-health-benefits/other-services/ to check eligibility.

Is it worth buying hearing aids at Costco in Phoenix?
Yes — Costco Hearing Centers offer prescription hearing aids at $3,100/pair in Arizona, roughly 45% below typical audiologist prices of $5,600. Costco carries major brands (Philips, Jabra, Rexton) with professional fitting and follow-up. The main trade-off: less personalized service and no independent practice relationship. For straightforward hearing loss, Costco delivers excellent value.
What are OTC hearing aids and are they right for me in Phoenix?
The FDA now allows OTC hearing aids for adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss — no audiologist visit required. Models like Sony CRE-10, Jabra Enhance Plus, and Bose SoundControl cost $800 per pair, compared to $5,600 at an audiologist. OTC aids are appropriate if you struggle in noisy restaurants or group conversations but can hear one-on-one clearly. For severe loss or word-discrimination problems, prescription aids from a licensed audiologist in Phoenix are still recommended.
What's the difference between bundled and unbundled hearing aid pricing in Phoenix?
Most Phoenix audiologists use bundled pricing — one fee covers the hearing aids plus all follow-up visits, adjustments, cleanings, and batteries for 3–4 years. Unbundled pricing separates the device cost from services ($75–$200 per visit). Bundled pricing is often better value if you expect frequent adjustments. Always ask which model applies to your quote — an apparently cheaper unbundled price can quickly exceed a bundled price after several follow-up visits.
