programs that permit you to wear a hearing aid for a period of time for a nominal fee after which you
may decide if you want to purchase the hearing aid.
Federal law restricts the sale of hearing aids to those individuals who have obtained a medical
evaluation from a licensed physician. Federal law permits a fully informed adult to sign a waiver
statement declining the medical evaluation for religious or personal beliefs that preclude consultation
with a physician. The exercise of such a waiver is not in your best health interest and its use is strongly
discouraged.
Children with hearing loss
In addition to seeing a physician for a medical evaluation, a child with a hearing loss should be
directed to an audiologist for evaluation and rehabilitation because hearing loss may cause problems
in language development and the educational and social growth of a child. An audiologist is qualified
by training and experience to assist in the evaluation and rehabilitation of a child with hearing loss.
