Description

FDA Petition for OTC Hearing Aids with Self-Programming Options Now Seeking Support Signatures. Sign up now to help 30 Million HOH Consumers.

This website is about Hard of Hearing Consumer rights and the unethical selling protocol for Hearing Aids. We objectively and factually discuss issues regarding availability of hearing aids, the high cost, poor fitting, poor selection and poor satisfaction rate. Much information is NOT volunteered to those needing hearing aids. We steer you towards the truth - and away from sales pitches and the conflict of interest that hearing aid sellers cannot avoid.

Here we refer to both Hearing Instrument Specialists (HIS) and Dispensing Audiologists equally.

A more proper name is audioprosthologist.

As consumers, we are grateful for the option of purchasing our hearing aids from H.I.S dispensers. Without them, the Audiology profession would have a tighter monopoly on hearing aid sales and our choices would be less then they are now.

The process for selling hearing aids is highly unethical, and may be fraudulent. All those involved in the Hearing Aid Industry are guilty for forcing us to be beholden to them. The result is that Hearing Aid Industry makes huge profits, upwards of 3-400% and more while reaching just 20% of us. For more information, please visit: Hard of Hearing Advocates Many sellers make money even if we return an aid!!! There is no incentive to help us with such a profit. The Hearing Aid Industry has a legal scam running! Therefore we must focus on the ethics of dispensing hearing aids, keeping in mind the statistics as well our personal experiences. Lets change this.

DO YOU HAVE THE COURAGE FOR THESE CONVICTIONS? Join us, and HELP SET RIGHT this injustice to those needing hearing aids.
