Bill requiring private insurance to cover children's hearing aids
If your child qualifies for Medicaid (either due to income or disability) their hearing aids are covered, but if neither of those apply, you pay for them out of pocket. Right now, private insurance is required to cover $1,000 per hearing aid, but the actual cost of the hearing aids are $2500-$5000.
Sen. Laura Sturgeon is sponsoring a bill that would require private insurance to cover 95% of the cost of hearing aids. The Joint Finance Committee needs to fund it so it can get a vote. If you support this, contact the JFC members and ask them to fund it!
