Hearing Help!!!!

[A.E.T.]

Thanks for viewing this post.  On Tuesday my grandfather is meeting with 
a rep. from Miracle Ear.  He has developed gradual hearing loss due to 
age is looking for a hearing aid.  I know nothing about this and would 
like to prevent him from being scammed!!!!!!!!!  He cannot afford to 
purchase a hearing aid and is probably going to rely on medicare for 
partial payment?  Do they pay for hearing aids?  Should he be looking at 
Bell Tone, Starkey, etc.?  I want to prevent him from making the wrong 
decision and wasting time and the little money he has.  Thanks in 
advance, AL
