Hearing aid insurance
Does your medical insurance cover the cost of hearing aids?
Generally, hearing aids are not covered by medical insurance, but there are exceptions and other ways to save money on your purchase.
Does your health insurance cover hearing aids?
The short answer is that it depends on your insurance. Generally, hearing aids are not covered by most medical insurance, but sometimes insurance companies offer an optional hearing plan that includes coverage for hearing aids and fittings.
In order to find out if your insurance covers hearing aids, you must review your contract with the insurance company. The easiest way to find out is to call your insurance company to learn more.

What type of coverage exists?
The coverage provided depends on the details of your plan. Here are a few examples of what you can expect:
