Can we get Medicare to cover the cost of hearing aids & services?

Please let us know which Medicare Advantage plans cover this cost. I've had 3 different plans since being eligible for Medicare and none of them have covered hearing aids UNLESS I purchase a specific brand they will cover. I have a profound hearing loss, so the type of hearing aid I need does not fall within that framework. I pay full price. Thankfully, my cochlear implant processors have been 90% covered.

my 2020 Aetna Medicare Advantage plan covered the Phonak $5000 hearing aids. I paid $2400 for this high tier model. There were other lower tier models less expensive and numerous other brands available. This year I have a United Health AARP advantage plan and they offer hearing aid discounts. I read that Blue Cross/Blue Shield Medicare Advantage plans offer the best hearing aid discounts.. I purchased through my local Hear USA retail store..
