If insurance plans don't cover hearing aids in general, they won't cover hearing aids in any specific situation either.

- mgerdts 9y agoMy insurance would cover a hearing aid for the ear that needs a hearing aid. Whether the hearing aid supports bluetooth doesn't come into the equation. Since I only need one hearing aid, the bluetooth feature was of minimal interest. I've not heard of any hearing aids that have a microphone that is useful for the bluetooth headset profile. The microphones for this use tend to be an add-on device which may or may not come with a pair of hearing aids. Admittedly, I've not researched this area much.
