HEARING AID INSURANCE

Insurance for your hearing aids

As technology has improved, hearing aids have also become more advanced. You can now connect them to your smartphone via Bluetooth to listen to music, watch videos, and take phone calls.

However, with these advancements, the cost of hearing aids has gone up. This might make you consider getting hearing aid insurance to cover accidental damage or theft. Let’s explore what hearing aid insurance offers.

Why you need insurance for hearing aids

Hearing aids are valuable and delicate devices that can be easily lost or damaged. Given their high cost, replacing or repairing them can be quite expensive. By having insurance for hearing aids, you are protected against accidental damage or theft, ensuring you can quickly and affordably replace them if needed.

Is hearing aid insurance worth it?

Hearing aid insurance can be worthwhile for several reasons, including:

  • Coverage for Repairs: It can cover the cost of repairs due to accidental or water damage.
  • Protection Against Defects: You may be covered for breakdowns caused by manufacturing or workmanship defects.
  • Replacement Costs: Insurance can help with the often-high cost of replacing hearing aids.
  • Quick Claims Process: A fast claims process ensures your hearing aids are quickly taken care of.
  • Holiday Protection: Some policies include free coverage while you’re on holiday, protecting your hearing aids wherever you go.

Hearing aid insurance for seniors

Losing or damaging hearing aids can significantly affect the daily lives of those over 50. It can result in difficulties hearing essential sounds like your phone or doorbell, understanding conversations, and enjoying TV or radio. Additionally, replacing or repairing hearing aids can be expensive.

With hearing aid insurance, you can swiftly address these issues, ensuring your hearing aids function perfectly and allowing you to comfortably continue your everyday activities.

Hearing aid insurance FAQs

What is the cost to replace a lost hearing aid?

The cost to replace a lost hearing aid varies based on where you got it. Some NHS trusts charge between £50 and £135 for a replacement. If you bought it from somewhere else, the cost depends on their policy. For example, at Specsavers, replacing a lost hearing aid within the first four years costs 50% of the original price.

What are my options for replacing hearing aids privately?

If you want more options for hearing aids, consider going private. Private treatments can be expensive, so check prices first and compare what different providers offer.

Does my insurance cover loss or damage to hearing aids?

If your home insurance policy includes hearing aid coverage, they are considered personal possessions and are protected against accidental damage, loss, or theft. Be sure to review your policy to confirm if it covers accidental damage or theft of home contents.
