A strong outlay, spread out
Renewing a pair of hearing aids costs several thousand euros every few years. With a policy, it becomes a predictable monthly fee.

Hearing and hearing aid insurance
At JORI, we understand the importance of maintaining good hearing health and help you enjoy the sounds of life whenever you want.
Definition
What is hearing insurance
Hearing insurance covers periodic hearing check-ups, the adaptation of hearing aids and their renewal, as well as repair or replacement in case of breakdown, breakage or loss. It is a relevant cover because a pair of mid-range hearing aids easily exceeds €2,000 and public healthcare only finances them in very limited cases, mainly in minors.
Advantages
Advantages of hearing insurance
Replacement if lost
They are tiny devices used daily and are frequently misplaced. The replacement guarantee avoids having to repeat the entire purchase.
Follow-up that prevents deterioration
The periodic check-up detects gradual loss before the person notices, who is usually the last to realise.
Caring for the ear is caring for the mind
Being able to follow a group conversation again restores social life, and with it the stimulus that research links to preserving cognitive function. The effect goes far beyond hearing.

Frequent doubts
Most frequently asked questions about hearing insurance
How much do hearing aids cost?
Between €1,000 and €2,000 per unit depending on the range, i.e., between €2,000 and €4,000 for a pair. Their lifespan is around five years, so it is a recurring expense that is advisable to plan for rather than face all at once.
Aren't they covered by public healthcare?
Public funding is focused on minors and certain degrees of hearing loss, with amounts that rarely cover the total cost. Most adults bear the expense entirely on their own.
How often are they renewed?
The usual clinical recommendation is every four or five years, both due to device wear and the progression of the hearing loss itself, which often requires recalibration or a change of range.
Does it cover if I already have hearing loss?
It depends on the degree and whether it is declared at the time of contracting. An already diagnosed loss usually affects the renewal cover, although the repair and replacement of the device can still be contracted. Declaring it is always what ensures that the policy responds.
What happens if I lose a hearing aid?
The replacement guarantee covers the substitution, usually with a deductible or a limit on replacements per period. It is one of the most commonly used covers in practice, given the size of the devices.
Is it worth it if I hear well?
The periodic check-up has value in itself: presbycusis progresses gradually and those who suffer from it are usually the last to notice. Detecting it early allows intervention before it affects social life and, according to available evidence, cognitive function.
