Funding
Despite the fact that hearing health affects millions of Australians, we know that funding for hearing services is fragmented between Commonwealth and State agencies and between the public and private sectors. There is no coordinated overall hearing healthcare program across Australia.
We are trying to assist people to understand current funding policy and hope that this information forms a practical guide. The guide is an overview of funding options and also includes a table of audiological benefits from private health funds. The table allows you to see at a glance what the various health funds contribute to hearing aids so you can compare and make informed decisions. You should note that it is difficult to make direct comparisons between health funds because there are significant differences between the various States and Territories. Always make direct enquiries about your particular situation and we will try our very best to help you out.
