Paid $7000. For my two hearing aids this year. Why doesn’t the govt give you tax benefits for buying hearing aids?

Wow $7000!!! You paid That much!

There are some special tax deductions and credits that IRS may allow. Check with your tax preparer or look it up online at IRS website.

OR

If you are registered for VA healthcare and believe you have hearing loss, you should contact your local medical center for a hearing test. The VA audiologist will make a clinical determination on the need for hearing aids and/or other hearing assistive devices. If hearing aids are recommended and fit, the hearing aids, repairs, and future batteries will all be at no charge to you, as long as you maintain VA eligibility for care.

Hopefully this can help you or someone else experiencing hearing problems.
