The question of whether your housing insurance covers hearing aids has become a regularly occurring question among homeowners that require hearing aids. Some aid specialists advise that you put your hearing aids under your house and content insurance. But is that enough? What if the damage occurs outside your home? Does it still count? Well, let us find out!

Hearing aids are tiny devices that can be lost or damaged easily. This being a relatively expensive device makes it a target for theft. If you buy a hearing aid, it often comes with at least a 3-year warranty, which covers only manufacturing defects. It should also have a 12-month loss or damage provision exercised at the full discretion of the manufacturer.
