Private Health Insurance Rebates

Health Insurance Rebates for Hearing Aids

Take advantage of your private health extras for hearing aids at HEARING SAVERS, and save even more. To find out what your policy covers, click on your health fund below.

Not all health insurers will cover the cost of hearing aids, so it's important to check your cover. When considering private health insurance:

  • Ensure hearing aids are included in extras
  • Take note of any waiting periods
  • Check how much money you're likely to get back
  • Find out whether the cover for hearing aids is a one-off or whether you have regular cover, e.g. some insurers will only make one payment, while others will contribute to new hearing aids every 3 to five years.
