Michigan HB5436 requires health insurers to cover hearing aids and related services for qualified enrollees.
Michigan HB5436 amends the insurance code to mandate that insurers provide coverage for hearing aids and related services for qualified enrollees. A qualified enrollee must be evaluated by an audiologist and an otolaryngologist, who determines the enrollee is a candidate for a hearing aid. The coverage includes audiological examinations, hearing aid evaluations, servicing, maintenance, remote microphones, earmolds, and auditory training. The maximum coverage is $3,000 per hearing aid every 36 months, adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index.
