I purchased hearing aids from the Lendrum, Amplifon hearing center in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and was charged $1760.00 and told the Ruby 2's were an upgrade. I later learned that this model of Oticon aids was 100 % covered by the Alberta government, aids to daily living for seniors, and was able to return them on the 90 day policy. I then purchased another pair of aids at another hearing center and they were completely covered by aids to daily living. I caution all seniors to ask around as the staff at the Lendrum Amplifon hearing center has no problem over charging me for my aids.
