Ally\u2019s Act (H.R. 2439\/S. 1135)<\/h2>\n

Ally’s Act is a bill that would require private insurance companies to provide coverage for Osseointegrated Hearing Devices (OIDs), including Bone Anchored Hearing Aids (BAHA) and Cochlear Implants (CI), for children and adults birth to age 64. This coverage would include not only the hearing devices themselves, but also all associated services, surgeries, and associated costs.<\/p>\n

Osseointegrated hearing devices are often the only kind of hearing devices some individuals can wear if they are missing an ear(s), have no ear canal(s), have experienced sensorineural hearing loss or congenital hearing loss, or have lost hearing due to a tumor, head trauma, or drug toxicity. Ally\u2019s Act would enable many children and adults with hearing loss to participate in the community and the workplace and to enjoy a higher quality of life. No one should be unable to access devices which enable them to hear because they cannot afford them \u2013 especially when these devices are deemed medically necessary.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
