Think you may need help with your hearing? Don’t call that number on the TV screen — instead, turn to low- or no-cost professional services already covered as part of your CalPERS health plan.
We’ve Got You Covered
Both CalPERS Basic and Medicare plans include coverage for routine hearing exams and related physician services, either at no cost or for a low copay.
What’s more, our Basic and Medicare plans also include coverage for hearing aids.
To find out more about these vital services or to make an appointment, visit your health plan’s website or contact your health plan directly to find a hearing professional such as an audiologist and take advantage of these important benefits. You can also reach out to your primary care provider for assistance.
In addition, you can review hearing services available to you outlined in your plan’s Evidence of Coverage booklet.
Contact a Hearing Professional With Your Health Plan
Don’t trust your hearing health to just anyone on television or online. Audiologists and related hearing-services experts like those with CalPERS Basic and Medicare health plans must meet state licensure or certification requirements — and that goes not only for California hearing professionals, but for all other states as well.
These trained and regulated care providers can ensure you are getting appropriate high-quality hearing services, treatment, and medical equipment via your health plan, and not just what advertisers, mail-order companies, or paid spokespeople want to sell you.
So, don’t sell yourself and your hearing health short — take advantage of your CalPERS health coverage by visiting a qualified hearing specialist with your health plan today.
For questions about CalPERS health plans and services, contact your plan directly, or call us at 888 CalPERS (or 888-225-7377).
