The Costco price was about 40% less than the price of a similar unit at a local hearing aid provider.

No matter where he gets his hearing aids, buy the batteries at Costco. Way, way cheaper than anywhere else I’ve found.

When my health insurance stopped covering hearing aids, I started looking at prices more closely. I ended buying a basic model for ~$800 at Costco. The most similar model was selling for ~$1500 at Sonus and ~$2200 at an independent audiologist. There is also a notable difference in maintenance costs. Sonus charges $30 to clean after initial free period and more for certain other services. Costco cleans for free and has also replaced filters + other basic repairs at no cost. It’s also convenient to have them cleaned while shopping, the pick them up on the way out. As noted above, battery prices are also lower than I’ve seen anywhere else, including online. These hearing aid benefits are the main reason why I have a Costco membership.
