Hearing Aids may become More Affordable Thanks to New Devices

According to NPR Morning Edition, the Company Sound World Solutions has developed an off-the-shelf Hearing Aid solution that is easy-to-use and program, and vastly less expensive that traditional Hearing Aids.  Using standard Bluetooth technology, the new hearing aids can be easily programmed using any paired Smart Phone device.  Programming allows you to optimize the volume and clarity of the device for your use.
This is great news for the more than 300 million people worldwide that suffer from some form of hearing loss.  At $300 versus up to $4000, estimates are that this new CS10 device is quickly going to be a cost-sensitive solution for patients that have minimal health care coverage for hearing aids and for anyone that has an aversion to multiple visits to the doctors to have a costly traditional hearing aid adjusted and programmed correctly.  Learn more about this wonderful device at http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2013/07/02/197639536/to-make-hearing-aids-affordable-firm-turns-on-bluetooth
