Can Costco perform pitch and loudness matching for tinnitus assessment?

Tinnitus is something you only hear. There is no know way to measure it. As my dad would say it is all in your head

There are ways we can get fairly close to determining the frequency and loudness of tinnitus. It’s not very scientific, though, and really only works on tonal-type tinnitus. Those who hear “whooshing” or “crickets” have more of a variable sound that is not easily duplicated. We used to have to do this kind of unscientific hit-or-miss method if we were going to use what is called “notch therapy.” I hated it. I never could never get it to work for a patient. Typically, we found that amplification through hearing aids had the highest success rate and tinnitus therapy signals coming in at a distant second. I wish there was more I could tell you. I really do.

My audiologist matched the test tone sounds to my Tinnitus noise. Mine is 500 Hz left ear and 1000 Hz right ear.

To perform pitch and loudness matching for tinnitus, the only equipment you need is an audiometer. So, Costco may be capable of performing said test, because they technically have the equipment to do so. But it will likely depend on the comfort level of the tester as to whether or not if they will. My understanding (and this may be corrected by someone who works there) is that Costco prefers to have standardization in what services and treatments are available at each location. In theory, you should be able to walk into any Costco and receive the same level of care across the board. Because some states have ruled that Tinnitus Management is outside of the scope of practice for Hearing Instrument Specialists/Hearing Aid Dealers, and because Costco employees both Audiologists and HISs around the country, Costco has chosen to not offer Tinnitus Treatment as part of their package.
