I guess you don’t have insurance to cover? I just got new hearing aids this month from the VA. I really like them because of the remote control for the volume. I can adjust them for any situation quickly.
The VA has denied my claim even though my separation physical showed loss in the same ranges. So yes, for now, it’s out of pocket.
A relative of mine has both Medicare and Tricare. Neither of ‘em cover hearing aids. If these two don’t, I’m guessing very few medical insurance companies cover hearing aids.
I got some from the VA and they are crap. Nothing but an amp you stick in your ear and it amps everything.What you are trying to hear and all the noise you’re trying to hear over.
I recently was given hearing aids by the VA. They are Starkey’s Muse i2400. They are programmable to amplify only the frequencies that you hear poorly. They’re great!
