Continuing Hearing Care

It's normal for your hearing to change over time. To help you adjust, UnitedHealthcare plans may include coverage for follow-up visits.

If your plan includes this benefit, you'll have access to a limited number of visits to an in-network hearing provider each year.

Visits may take place virtually or at the provider's office, depending on coverage and the brand of hearing aid.
