Update: Hearing aids are still expensive; however, what you pay is determined by the variety of hearing aid manufacturers your hearing healthcare provider supports as well as the severity of your hearing loss. Prices range from $250 to almost $7,000.
Consumers, of course, pay for those advances, but thats the cost (and benefit) of staying on the bleeding edge. Very good hearing aids with older technology are available at lower prices, but when most people buy a hearing aid, they want the best they can get, not the best that was available 20 years ago. When I bought my first home computer in 1983, the retail price was $6,000.
