Bone Anchored Hearing Aides
What is Bone Conduction?
Bone-anchored hearing aids (BAHA) are designed to use your body’s natural ability to transfer sound through bone conduction. 
The BAHA implant is placed under the skin in a discreet place behind your ear. The sound processor then snaps onto the implant. The processor converts sound into vibrations, which are then sent through the skull bone, directly to your inner year.
Will BAHA work for me?
If your hearing loss is due to problems in the outer or middle ear, a bone anchored hearing aid may be a good solution for you. BAHA systems bypass problems in the ear canal and middle ear so you can enjoy clearer, more natural-sounding hearing. There are three main types of hearing loss that can benefit from conduction hearing systems: conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, and mixed hearing loss. People with single-sided hearing loss have also found BAHA to be helpful because sounds are routed to the good ear.
In many cases, we have patients wear the processor on an adjustable, flexible headband prior to the surgical implant to ensure that bone anchored hearing aids are the best solution.
Bone Anchored Hearing Aids & Children
Early identification of hearing loss is vital for a child’s language and social development. BAHA has proven to be an effective hearing 
device for even very young children and comes with special equipment such as a flexible processor band and skins and stickers to personalize the equipment.

Happy Patients:
Will health insurance cover my hearing aids?
What about ear wax removal?
Insurance covers many hearing & audiology services.
Health insurance companies cover a variety of hearing aids. Since there are often specific requirements, and/or limitations on what or how much is covered, it is important to thoroughly understand what your health plan offers. It is our goal to find the type of hearing aid that is most suitable for your hearing loss. We will also help you understand your treatment options as they relate to your health insurance coverage.
Most insurance typically covers the cost of earwax removal services, with the patient paying only their standard policy deductible. However, the cost of earwax removal is not as expensive as you might think - without going through insurance, the cost of a standard earwax removal is $95.00 for either one ear or two.
We proudly contract with the insurance companies listed below. Our list is constantly growing, so check back often to see if your company is included. Alternatively, you can call us for assistance with your plan’s coverage, or to see if we contract with your insurance.
