How Cigna Works with Medicare

Cigna hearing aid insurance works alongside Medicare to provide financial assistance for hearing aids. Medicare does not typically cover hearing aids, but Cigna may be able to help cover the cost of hearing aids and related services.

To be eligible for Cigna hearing aid coverage, you must be enrolled in a Medicare Part B plan and have Medicare Part A and Part B as your primary insurer. You must also be enrolled in a Cigna health plan that offers hearing aid coverage.

Once enrolled in a Cigna health plan, you can add hearing aid coverage to your plan.

This coverage will help pay for a portion of the cost of hearing aids as well as related services. Cigna typically covers up to 80% of the cost of hearing aids and up to 50% of the cost of hearing aid services, such as hearing exams, fittings, and adjustments.

It is important to note that the cost of hearing aids can vary greatly depending on the type and technology level of the hearing aid. Cigna may also have limits on the types of hearing aids covered and the amount of coverage provided.
