Disposition versions
156. The Minister reimburses the cost of a continuous-wear hearing device or a hearing device for an amount exceeding $700 only when prior authorization for the purchase is given by the Minister.
The Minister authorizes the purchase of such a hearing device when it is demonstrated to the Minister that the condition of the person who is a victim prevents them from operating another type of hearing device or from having it suitably fitted.
To meet this condition, the person who is a victim must provide an attestation from a health professional referred to in one of subparagraphs 1 to 4 of the first paragraph of section 17 who holds a specialist’s certificate that is relevant to the condition of the person who is a victim.
The Minister reimburses a maximum amount of $1,800 per year, but reimburses no other amount for goods and services relating to a continuous-wear hearing device.
The Minister reimburses a maximum amount equal to the manufacturer’s cost for a hearing device other than a continuous-wear hearing device referred to in the first paragraph, at the frequency determined in subdivision 2 of this Division.
