Most plans offer hearing exams and hearing aids through TruHearing®.
SCAN offers a hearing aid benefit through TruHearing® for most SCAN plans.
This benefit allows you to buy hearing aids at a reduced cost through TruHearing. You’re covered for up to two hearing aids per year. And you can choose from many hearing-aid styles in both Advanced and Premium models. For most SCAN plans, the copay per hearing aid is either $450 or $750* per aid, depending on which of the models you choose.
The benefit also includes:
- A TruHearing consultant to help you find a TruHearing provider and schedule your first appointment
- A comprehensive hearing exam with a TruHearing accredited provider
- The first year (12 months) of follow-up visits for fittings and adjustments to your new hearing aids following purchase
- The ability to stream audio or telephone calls from a smartphone directly through your hearing aids
- Three-year manufacturer warranty
- A 60-day trial period
- 80 free hearing aid batteries included with non-rechargeable models
TruHearing’s team of professional consultants will help you throughout the process, answering your questions and helping schedule your hearing examination with an accredited TruHearing Audiologist or Hearing Instrument Specialist.
At your appointment, your provider will examine your hearing and recommend a hearing device for you. He or she will provide you with information about your hearing aids, including what you can expect to experience as you get used to wearing them.
* The hearing aid benefit is not available for some SCAN plans. Copays may vary. Check your Evidence of Coverage to see exactly what your plan includes.
