Private Health Fund Rebates and Tax Offsets
Hearing aids may be covered by your private health fund. Please check with your
own private health fund if you are eligible for a rebate as each fund varies according
to amounts, conditions and rules that can affect your entitlements.
Tax offsets can also be obtained from the Australian Taxation office as hearing aids
come under the “medical expenses tax offset”. Further advice can be obtained by
phoning the Personal Tax Infoline on 132 861 or on 1800 806 215 (TTY).
