A New Day for Digital Hearing Aids

openfit.com saves you money on hearing aids

If you wear hearing aids, I'm sure you've wondered why your cell phone seems to be as advanced as your hearing aid is, however your cell phone costs $500(16GB Apple iPhone)and your hearing aids costs 4 times that much. Why does every other piece of technology fall in price while digital hearing aids only get more expensive?

At openfit.com, we provide the same digital hearing aid technology that you can find with your local audiologist for a lot less money. We do this in two ways. First, we shorten the supply line, next we eliminate the need for future programming.

By shortening the supply line, we mean that we are the closest you can get to the manufacture. Typically hearing aids have a lot of markup because when you buy a hearing aid you are paying for the following: building rent, administrative employees, hearing aid distributor salespeople and other distributor overhead, manufacturing costs, taxes and so on. We work directly with the manufacturer and do not have any of the overhead that most hearing aid dealers have.

The second reason why we are able to save you money is because we give you the hardware and software to
program the hearing aids yourself. When you purchase a hearing aid from openfit.com, it comes with all of the hardware and software needed to make all of the adjustments on your computer. We will even program the hearing aid before we send it and help you with any future programming that you need. Having the hardware and software saves you money and time.

At openfit.com, all of our
hearing aids are less than $1000 each. Our aids have the same technology that you will find elsewhere for a lot more. All of our hearing aids are digital hearing aids. Give us a call or email if you have any questions. We are here to help you hear better.
