Update: Insurers in New Jersey Required to Cover Kids' Hearing Aids

Sunday January 4, 2009
As of March 30, 2009, insurance companies and state plans are required to pay at least part of the cost of hearing aids for youngsters 15 and under. This is the culmination of a battle that had taken place last year to get insurance coverage for hearing aids in New Jersey. Does anyone have a complete scorecard of which states now require insurance coverage for hearing aids for children?
