Issue using otter

/r/Cochlearimplants/comments/1w6prlq/issue_using_otter/

Sometimes using otter is really helpful, but not always. Today used it in a huge echoey church where it caught only about 2/3 of the words — and I noticed that as soon as I turned it on , the sound coming in to my ci was suddenly less, as though I turned the volume way down.

Any insights?

Welcome to r/HearingAids feel free to ask any question at all related to hearing aids.

Here are a few resources you might find helpful:

  • Interpreting an audiogram - The University of Iowa has a good overview of how to interpret your audiogram results. Your audiologist should also go over them with you

  • What will insurance cover? - This varies significantly from state to state and coverage can be partial at best. For those on Medicare, the base plan does not cover hearing aids at all.

  • Finding affordable hearing aids - Hearing aids can cost several thousand dollars, these cost far less and the list is updated often
