Hearing Aid Coverage for First Nations and Inuit

Many people often neglect their hearing loss and do not seek a doctor’s advice. The hearing loss may lead to depression and other psychological issues. The hearing loss can be observed mainly among the elderly. But nowadays, studies show that 40% of adults from the age of 20 to 79 suffer from the hearing loss of varying degrees (audiometry results from 2012 to 2015).

Studies show that a large section of Inuit children suffers due to hearing impairment.
