"The HUM", a persistent Low Frequency Noise

Medicare often does cover single sided deafness for cochlear implants, but it may take some personal advocacy.

The CI manufacturers will go to bat for you if your medical team has determined that a CI would work well for you. I know, personally, that Cochlear Americas has had excellent results on this issue.

Who told you Medicare would not cover the CI procedure?

The surgeon's, Dr Michael Murray, office gave me a private pay estimate. I asked if they could try to get an approval from Medicare and the gal just said Medicare doesn't cover it. And that was it. I didn't really know who to talk to after that.
