Hearing aid coverage in Saskatchewan

With a focus on low-income families, children can receive hearing aid coverage through the Family Health Benefits program. Call the Ministry of Social Services for more information and to see if your family qualifies.

Hearing aid coverage in Saskatchewan is also available through Supplementary Health Benefits for the following groups:

• Government wards
• Inmates in provincial institutions
• Residents in special care facilities who are eligible for the Senior’s Income Plan
• Those enrolled in Saskatchewan assured Income for Disability (SAID), Provincial Training Allowance (PTA) or Saskatchewan Income Support (SIS)

Upon prior approval from the Ministry of Health, you can receive coverage for hearing aids and other servicing costs such as hearing assessments and hearing aid maintenance. 

Plus, if your hearing aids are lost or stolen, this benefit will help with 70% of the cost if you are over the age of 20. If you are 20 or under, the hearing aid replacement may be fully covered.
Contact the Saskatchewan Health Authority if you think you may qualify for this benefit.
