If you are enrolled in the UM/Aetna medical plan, Aetna provides hearing aid coverage. In addition, Aetna members receive a discount on hearing aids (not eligible for reimbursement through the medical plan).
The in-network benefit is 100% reimbursement, after deductible, up to a maximum of $3,000 per ear. The benefit can be used every three years. If enrolled in the HRA and using an out-of-network provider, the out-of-network benefit is 70% reimbursement after meeting your separate out-of-network deductible. 1. Aetna claim form
