You said it exactly as it is very complex. Unfortunately, most people do not research and do not understand the complexity of hearing aids-
Nor do “they”

@allia4 People would be interested in knowing what Medicare supplement plans provide hearing aid coverage. Yes, it's complex. It also varies in different states.

An issue with many seniors is that hearing loss is only one of the health issues they deal with. The supplement plans vary in coverage for other health issues, and they have to choose what covers the issue that concerns them the most. Hearing loss can get lost in the shuffle especially if/when the person with the hearing loss isn't willing to do something about it or is in the blame/denial stage which we know is very common.

It can be a matter of choosing what plan covers most of a person's health concerns.

There aren't one size fits all plans. Dental health is another area where coverage can be lacking. So is vision.
