      Frequently Asked Questions:

      How does NationsHearing work with my insurance plan?

      Your health plan selected NationsHearing to administer your hearing aid benefit. We create greater access to better hearing by offering hearing aids at cost-effective prices.

      Does your insurance company offer a hearing benefit?

      Yes, and that is one thing that sets your health plan apart. The hearing aid benefit your plan offers is very generous.

      What do you charge for a hearing test?

      What brands of hearing aids do you offer?

      NationsHearing offers state-of-the art hearing aids from all major manufacturers.

      Today’s hearing aids are nothing like the cumbersome and often ineffective devices of the past. They’re smaller, more advanced and more powerful than ever. We believe the right set of features that match your lifestyle and level of hearing loss is just as important as the style of hearing aid.

      Many hearing aids are Bluetooth® enabled and may connect directly with your cell phone.

      The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are registered trademarks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc.,

      Will I need to purchase batteries for my hearing aids?

      No, we worked closely with your health plan to develop a comprehensive hearing aid package. Your hearing aids include three years of batteries.

      When I purchase my hearing aids, is there a warranty included?

      Yes. NationsHearing offers a 3-year repair warranty and one-time Lost, Stolen & Damaged replacement coverage* per hearing aid. To file a claim, call us at 800-921-4559. Simply pay the deductible and we will order the replacement device.

      Once the device has arrived, your NationsHearing provider will contact you to schedule an appointment for reprogramming and refitting.

      *Deductibles apply.

      What is the return policy?

      NationsHearing offers a 60-day money-back guarantee, regardless of the reason for the return.

      Call 866-304-2138 (TTY:711) and speak with a dedicated Member Experience Advisor, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. local time, who will schedule your hearing test with no out-of-pocket cost with a local hearing provider.

      Once you’ve taken your hearing test, your provider will review the results of your hearing test with you. If you need hearing aids, your provider will work with you to select the highest quality hearing aid at the best value for your benefit plan.

      NationsHearing will then work with your hearing provider to help you get fitted with your new hearing aid and schedule any necessary follow-up visits.
