You are fortunate to have that kind of insurance. Most people don't. Medicare does not cover hearing aids. A few advantage plans cover them if they are purchased from specified providers. Those providers do not always sell the hearing instruments needed. Again, it is complex, and situations vary. COST is one of the major reasons people do not get hearing help. High quality hearing aids needed by people who have severe/profound hearing loss generally cost $5000 or more per pair.
