How to request an appointment with UnitedHealthcare Hearing

Have you had your hearing checked lately? Getting a hearing test is an important health move, since about two-thirds of people over age 60 have age-related hearing loss.1
Maybe you’ve noticed that your ears aren’t as sharp as they used to be, and you’re wondering if you need hearing aids. Or you already wear hearing aids, and you’d like to upgrade them. Even if you think your hearing is normal, a baseline hearing exam is a good idea.
A no-cost hearing exam and consultation is part of your benefits with UnitedHealthcare Hearing. Even better, UnitedHealthcare Hearing has a large nationwide network of high-quality providers. What are you waiting for? Follow these steps to get started.
