Who can fit hearing aids?
A recent headline from Florida reminds us of the legalities involving the fitting or dispensing of hearing aids. It read,"Venice Hearing Aid Salesman Charged with Two Felonies". The story is that of a man who has been illegally dispensing hearing aids since 2003, without a license. This man twice was unable to pass his state's certification exams was barred from retaking the tests. This story made me want to mention that the dispensing or fitting of hearing aids is a state regulated process. Those who wish to fit hearing aids must pass exams and hold a license to do so. This is to protect the consumer or patient from possible harm and from being taken advantage of. By far, most people involved in dispensing hearing aids do it for the right reason; to help those who suffer from hearing loss. But if you ever have a question about the individual you are seeing for help, check them out. Most states keep a search-able online database of license holders. Check with your states Division of Professional Registration or similarly named branch of licensed professions. They will have information available about who to contact if you have problems or questions.
