Before your patient can receive a hearing aid, they must complete an appointment with an audiologist. Please see how to make audiology referrals.
Once they have been seen by an audiologist, please email the ACT Referrals Chair (see EHHOP Roster), for next steps.

Cost
To obtain hearing aids, we use a program called Hear Now. The cost to the patient is the application fee, which is $125 per hearing aid. Therefore, if the patient needs two hearing aids, they will cost $250.
Wait time
Since there are many steps in this referral split among various stakeholders, wait time will vary. It can be anywhere from a couple weeks to multiple months.
