My insurance company doesn't cover hearing aids either but they do cover eye glasses. The company adheres to ADA standards by providing ALD's when requested. Why do these insurance companies spend thousands of dollars for self inflicted problems such as Alcohol treatment programs and they won't coverage a newborn or toddler that has been diagnosed with hearing impairments. I would love to have more information about who to contact so these insurance companies would reconsider their coverage for hearing losses. I have spent thousands myself for my daughters' mild to moderate hearing loss.
Men can have great sex, but kids have to suffer with poor hearing.
I fought first with the insurance company, and that failed. I then went higher, to my husband's company, as this is a self-funded medical plan. In this particular instance, the company reimbursed us for the expense. Two years later, we purchased Resound hearing aids for our son. His hearing loss has remained stable for over a year, and we felt these would greatly benefit him.
