Some Aetna plans have hearing aid benefits directly through the insurance company and others offer the option of using a contracted third party to administer the hearing aid benefit.
Sometimes AETNA has specific requirements that must be met before a hearing aid claim will be paid. Some require medical clearance from a physician. Some require a letter of medical necessity. Others require a denial from Medicare before they will consider the claim. Determining and understanding these can be a daunting task. Don’t become overwhelmed, we are here to help.
