How do I find out if I am eligible for funding?
The first step is to book a FREE* hearing check at your local Audika clinic, to identify if your hearing test results meet the criteria to access ACC funding.
If your hearing loss is the result of workplace noise exposure or an accident, you may be eligible for funding from ACC. Many factors are considered as part of the claim and this includes, your age any family history of hearing loss and any other causes of hearing loss.
If your ACC claim is not accepted, you may be entitled to funding under the Ministry of Health hearing aid funding scheme1 or the hearing aid subsidy scheme1. Your clinician will be the best person to discuss potential funding avenues available to you.
