FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established requirements for digital
wireless mobile devices to be compatible with hearing aids and other assistive hearing
devices.
When individuals employing some assistive hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants) use wireless mobile devices, they may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining
noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and
mobile devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless mobile devices
to assist hearing device users find mobile devices that may be compatible with their hearing
devices. Not all mobile devices have been rated. Mobile devices that are rated have the rating
on their box or a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and
hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be
able to use a rated mobile device successfully. Trying out the mobile device with your hearing
device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings
: Wireless mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to
generate less interference to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. M4
is the better/higher of the two ratings. M-ratings refer to enabling acoustic coupling with
hearing aids that do not operate in telecoil mode.
