Pricing, Private Health Funds &Insurance Cover
Hearing Device prices can range from $890.00 through to $6,000.00; depending upon:
- Degree and Nature of hearing impairment

- Ear canal size
Payment for audiology consultation, assessments and hearing devices purchased is required on the day of service. We accept EFTPOS, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and cash payments. City Hearing does not charge a surcharge for the use of EFTPOS and credit card facilities.
Most funds contribute towards the costs associated with the purchase of hearing instruments and sometimes on the costs of professional consultation fees, depending on the level of cover that you have.
Assistive hearing devices are expensive medical items. Expensive items are worth insuring, so we recommend that you get in touch with your household contents insurer and add your hearing devices to your policy. This is usually done by insurers at no charge and we can provide you with the valuation paperwork if required.
