Paying cash: what to do
- Ask whether the price is per ear and whether the visit fee is included.
- A primary care office, urgent care or hearing clinic often costs far less than an emergency room for the same service.
- Over-the-counter drops can soften wax, but see a clinician if you have ear pain, a hole in the eardrum or ear tubes.
