I picked a Medicare Advantage plan last year, and I’m not sure if my hearing aids are covered. How do I figure this out?

Answered by 6 licensed agents

You can find out that in the summary of benefits or evidence of coverage for your current insurance carrier.

We can call the carrier or the hearing aid company. This will give the client confidence in me.

it is also an opportunity to help the client understand that the benefit is really a small amount of the total cost.

The best thing to do is call your agent and ask - as a dedicated local agent I always invite my clients to call me with any questions about their coverage or benefits, and I am happy to help, that is what I am here for. Benefits vary from one policy to another, and from one insurance company to another!

The best way I have found to find if a service or product is covered is by calling the insurance carrier directly. A lot of the “is this covered?” Questions come after a service or product has been purchased which makes things a little more difficult. Ask the carrier ahead of time if a certain hearing aid, dental procedure, durable medical equipment, etc.. is covered and at what in network facility?

A good broker would be able to easily let you know how and what your Advantage plan covers. Or you can always call Member Services on the back of your insurance card and they will be able to let you know.

1. Call the member services phone number on the back of your card, and inquire as to how the hearing aid benefits work with your specific Advantage plan.

2. or, call the Agent/Broker who helped you enroll in the Advantage plan. He or she should be able to give you the main points of the hearing aid benefits and then point you to phone numbers for third party contractors who provide the hearing aid benefits to this plan.

3. or, obtain the EOC (Evidence of Coverage) pdf document that outlines in detail how all the benefits work, for your plan.
