Mine were 5000 and then ADP (Assistive Devises Program ) paid 1000. When they came in they weren't the right ones so when the right ones came in they took off another 500 for the inconvenience.Buying the aids is not the problem, don’t go to a big box store ie. Costco, Walmart etc. did the math, went to a reputable hearing Clinc mine is Connect Hearing. Free cleaning, silicone canal plugs, wax dams, hearing tests and adjustments and other assorted stuff for life. Rechargeable batteries warrantied for 5 years, expected life 7 to 10 then another $500 to replace with same warranty. Price difference about $2000 lower quality aid and no perks, your on your own. Willing to pay for easy.
I don't buy the batteries there I get them at Costco .. a lot cheaper. 48 batteries around 15 bucks and just as good.
