Warnings
• The audiologist or hearing instrument dispenser will conduct a hearing instrument
evaluation to assess your ability to hear with and without a hearing instrument. The
hearing instrument evaluation will enable the audiologist or dispenser to select and
fit a hearing instrument to your individual needs. If you have reservations about
your ability to adapt to amplification, you should inquire about the availability of a
trial, rental or purchase-option program. Many hearing instrument dispensers now
offer programs that permit you to wear a hearing instrument for a period of time
for a nominal fee, after which you may decide if you want to purchase the hearing
instrument. Federal law limits the sale of hearing instruments to those individuals
who have obtained a medical evaluation from a licensed physician.
• Federal law permits a fully informed adult to sign a waiver statement declining the
medical evaluation for religious or personal beliefs that preclude consultation with a
physician. The exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and its use
is strongly discouraged. A hearing instrument will not restore normal hearing and will
not prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from organic conditions.
A hearing instrument is only part of hearing rehabilitation and may need to be
supplemented by auditory training and lip reading.
