Financing Can Help Make Hearing Aids a Reality
Many people with hearing loss have not received treatment for it. According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, only 30 percent of adults 70 and older and 16 percent of adults 20-69 who could benefit from hearing aids have ever used them. At Piedmont Ear Nose and Throat Associates (PENTA), we’re dedicated to making hearing loss treatment more accessible.
Private Insurance
Though many medical insurances do not cover the cost of hearing aids, every plan is different. Some insurance companies are now offering partial or full coverage of hearing aids.
You’ll be able to find out if your insurance covers hearing aids by reviewing your current plan. You might also have the option of adding on hearing aid coverage.
If you’re interested in seeing if your plan will cover the cost of hearing aids, contacting your insurance company is a good first step. You can also call our office—depending on what type of insurance you have; we might be able to tell you about your coverage.
