As defined by the Mandate, "hearing aid is defined as any nonexperimental, wearable instrument or device designed for the ear and offered for the purpose of aiding or compensating for impaired human hearing, but excluding batteries, cords, and other assistive listening devices, including, but not limited to, FM systems." Medical Criteria: Not applicable. Policy: Covered under the hearing aid mandate are hearing aids. Only one hearing aid per ear up to the dollar limit, per 3-year timeframe.
