The $5,000 hearing aid myth (and what actually works)
Here's something most people don't know: since 2022, you can legally buy hearing aids over the counter — no prescription, no audiologist visit, no $5,000 bill.
The FDA opened up the OTC hearing aid market, and it changed everything.
The old way:
$4,000-$7,000 per pair
Multiple doctor visits
Insurance that rarely covers it
The new reality:
High-quality OTC hearing aids starting at $98/pair
Same core technology (digital sound processing, noise reduction, multiple modes)
Shipped to your door in days
45-day risk-free trial
Johns Hopkins research shows wearing hearing aids can reduce your risk of dementia by up to 61%. Yet 80% of people who need them don't have them — mostly because of cost.
That's why we built SoundBridge Hearing. Same technology, fraction of the price.

SoundBridge ONE — $98/pair. Essential hearing.
SoundBridge X — $389/pair. Touchscreen, 4 modes, Bluetooth.
