Hear What You Have Been Missing

Mary Massino Insurance Broker helps seniors in Dunmore navigate hearing insurance that supplements Medicare.

If you live in Dunmore and have noticed you turn up the television more often or ask people to repeat themselves, you are not alone. Age-related hearing loss is common, but Medicare typically does not cover hearing aids or routine hearing exams. That leaves many seniors paying thousands of dollars out of pocket for devices they rely on every day.

Hearing insurance helps you manage the cost of hearing tests, hearing aids, and follow-up fittings. Some plans also cover batteries, maintenance, and replacement devices after a set period. Mary Massino Insurance Broker explains your options in clear terms, so you understand what you will pay upfront and what the plan covers over time. You also learn which audiologists accept your plan and how often you can upgrade your devices.

If you are in Dunmore and want to review hearing coverage options, schedule a consultation at your home or at the office.

What hearing plans include and how they help

When you meet with Mary Massino Insurance Broker in Dunmore, you review plans that cover hearing exams, hearing aid fittings, and ongoing adjustments. You also learn whether the plan includes a discount on over-the-counter hearing devices or covers only prescription hearing aids. The consultation includes a breakdown of co-pays, annual limits, and whether you need a referral to see an audiologist.

After you enroll, you will know exactly how much your hearing aids will cost and how often the plan allows you to replace them. Most plans cover one pair every three to five years, along with annual exams and routine cleanings. If your hearing changes or your devices need repairs, the plan often covers adjustments at no extra charge.

Coverage begins once the plan is active, and you can usually schedule a hearing test within the first few weeks. The plan does not cover lost or damaged devices unless you have additional protection, and some plans require you to use in-network providers to receive full benefits.

Seniors often ask how hearing insurance works alongside Medicare and whether they can use their current audiologist. These questions come up frequently, and the answers depend on the plan you choose and where you receive care.

It typically covers hearing exams, hearing aids, fittings, and follow-up adjustments. Some plans also include batteries, cleaning kits, and repair services.
What does hearing insurance usually cover?
How does hearing insurance supplement Medicare?
Medicare does not cover routine hearing exams or hearing aids, so this insurance acts as a separate policy. You use it for devices and testing, while Medicare handles other medical care.
When should I enroll in a hearing plan?
You can enroll anytime, but it makes sense to do so if you are experiencing hearing loss or need new hearing aids soon. Some plans have waiting periods before covering devices.
Why do I need hearing insurance if I can buy hearing aids online?
Over-the-counter devices may help mild hearing loss, but a hearing plan covers custom fittings, ongoing adjustments, and professional exams that catch issues before they worsen. You also get support if your hearing changes over time.
How do I choose the right hearing plan in Dunmore?
Mary Massino Insurance Broker compares plans based on your current provider, the type of hearing aids you need, and your budget. You review options together until you find one that covers what matters most.
