Hearing aid coverage is now *required* under some insurance plans for some Washington State residents. Read more on our blog. Be sure to ask your insurance company about this benefit. And spread the word! hearingloss-wa.org/new-insur… #HearingAids #HearingLoss

Buying hearing aids? Washington State law requires that you be told about Bluetooth and telecoil options. #Telecoils connect you to #HearingLoops in public spaces all over the world.
People with hearing loss--especially seniors--benefit from several new laws in Washington State. We're proud to have supported these efforts. Read more in this AgeWise King County article. #WashingtonState #Seniors #HearingLoss agewisekingcounty.org/public…

#HearingLoops are the most-loved, most-used assistive listening system.
Hearing access in your venue can be as simple--yet powerful--as installing a hearing a loop. Our spokeswoman, Juliette Sterkens, shares more in this interview with @AccessiBe . youtube.com/watch?v=kHBAVxvH… #HearingLoss #HearingLoop #HearingLossAwareness #Disability

No one should have to ask permission for any kind of disability access.
Folks don't need to ask for a ramp, elevator or curb-cut. Our ADA is clear about what is required. That includes assistive hearing technology and strategies that deliver effective communications for all - in places of public accommodation. #hearingloss #hearingloop

If you have a #HearingLoss and live in #WashingtonState, the state's relay program can help you hear on the phone. Fees are determined on a sliding scale; many people qualify for free equipment. dshs.wa.gov/altsa/odhh/telec…

If you have a hearing loss but don't have hearing aids, a #HearingLoop in a public venue can still help you hear. Everyone can use one of these units to hear better.
Our new RX-30 rechargeable hearing loop listener offers universal hearing #accessibility to ANYONE in theatres, auditoriums, lecture halls, places of worship, meeting rooms, community centres etc. If your venue has a loop installed, these are a must-have! contacta.co.uk/products/larg…
