If you served our country and are now experiencing hearing loss, tinnitus or hyperacusis, we want you to know there are resources available to you. 

Did you know that the VA covers hearing aids? If you have hearing loss and your VA denies coverage for hearing aids, you can contact your county Veterans Service Officer for help to appeal that decision. 

Tinnitus is also common among veterans. If you have tinnitus, there are steps you can take to improve your quality of life. One of the most important steps is to connect with other veterans who can relate to your experiences. 

Support groups include: 

American Tinnitus Association
Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) Veterans Across America Virtual Chapter
Heroes with Hearing Loss
The Hyperacusis Network 

If you need help finding your CVSO or have other questions about VA services for hearing loss, tinnitus and hyperacusis, you can call the Veterans Linkage line at 1-888-LinkVet (546-5838) or visit their website at linkvet.org.

If you have questions about hearing loss or are curious about the many new technologies that make living with hearing loss easier, please contact us.
