This bill, the Medicare Audiology Access Improvement Act of 2025, aims to expand Medicare coverage for audiology services.

The bill also establishes a payment rate of 80% for these audiology services and includes qualified audiologists in existing healthcare provider categories. This legislation seeks to improve access to hearing and balance care for Medicare beneficiaries.
