NIDCD Website for Hearing Aid Information - Hearing Aids- Financial

  • Description:

    The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), website provides hearing aid related information.
    Medicare does not cover hearing aids for adults; however, diagnostic evaluations are covered if they are ordered by a physician for the purpose of assisting the physician in developing a treatment plan. Since Medicare has declared the BAHA a prosthetic device and not a hearing aid, Medicare may cover the BAHA if other coverage policies are met.
    Some nonprofit organizations provide financial assistance for hearing aids, while others may help provide used or refurbished aids. Contact the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication DisordersÆ (NIDCDÆs) Information Clearinghouse with questions about organizations that offer financial assistance for hearing aids.
