Let’s Discuss your Hearing Needs
To take the first step towards better hearing, you need to see a registered qualified audiologist for a hearing assessment. Your audiologist can help you understand your hearing loss, discuss your treatment options and possible benefits from a hearing aid. Your audiologist can discuss the costs and any possible Government rebates or subsidies and help you claim your HBF Health cover benefits (if you have Extras Cover).
