Receivers Oticon Intent 1 mini rite

Are the receivers that come in the Oticon Mini-rite mark with the decibel ?

My husband gets his hearing aids thru the . He has the Oticon mini rite Intent 1. Due to his Parkinsons he has mobility problems with his fingers. As a result, he keeps breaking the earmolds.

This last time VA sent us new earmolds, they were not made for the size receiver he currently was wearing. They were too large and the receivers were very loose inside the mold. So we went to the VA and the tech just went ahead and changed the receivers to a larger receiver to fit the new earmolds. Now I do not know what the decibel is for these newer receivers he is wearing. I would like to know. How do I know if they are the same ?

The larger the receiver the higher the rating.

The aid needed to be re-programmed AND re- or at least run back to the first fit settings using the correct receiver set-up.

The aid/Genie will recognise that it has a different receiver in the set-up than what was initially fitted.
