Decent hearing aides are quite expensive, complex devices with a substantial amount of R&D and non-trivial silicon.

For those who are interested, The Amp Hour has a great episode with Jørgen Jakobsen who talks about his experience in the industry and its quirks.

How are hearing aids priced in other countries compared to the US?
I live in the former USSR, in a very poor country. Hearing aids here are primitive, no fancy schmancy DSP bad really cheap. $10-20 or smth.
