Hearing Aids

Did you know that the average hearing aid costs about $3,000 or more?  And did you know that most insurances or MediCaid do NOT cover the ones that a person needs or if at all?  My previous insurance companies would only cover 80% up to $1,000.  So basically, they'd only cover $1,000 of a $3,000+ necessity!!  Worst off, did you knopw that MediCare does NOT cover hearing aids at all???

Here's another kicker, while doing research for assistance of hearing aids for myself, most assistance programs will only assist you if you're a minor under the age of 19 (or 21) depending on the program??  So what help does that to for me, a 30 year old adult, with no job and no income??  Nothing.  And for the few assistance programs out there for adults over the age of 21, you have to pay a processing fee/application fee, which depending on the company, ranged up to $800 for 2 hearing aids.  Doesn't make sense!
