I have a hard time recommending treatments to patients, either because i dont think they are validated, or, because they are so expensive. Tinnitus retraining centers charge on average $3000. What would be a fair out of pocket price for tinnitus, if we were to try to get insurance to pay for the rest of treatment??? What would be a fair out of pocket price for tinnitus retraining therapy? (Result) $200 $400 $600 $800 $1000

I would suggest you repost it in the support section where 90% of the action is. PS I would rejig your figures,TRT might be overpriced but $200??? Last Edited By: peterg 01/19/09 4:49 PM.
