What services are included in the OHS Scheme?

Services can include free high quality invisible hearing aids with Bluetooth, tinnitus devices, Assistive Listening Devices such as Television headphones, and rehabilitation accompanying all these devices.

How can you offer free, invisible Bluetooth hearing aids when others don’t?

• Being independent we scour all brands to find the smallest, feature-rich hearing aids and negotiate a better price due to our buying power.
• We reduce our costs and time by fitting advanced hearing aids as their reliability and sound quality is better, which means less visits for you.

But I already have OHS provided hearing aids!

If you already have hearing aids through the Hearing Services Program you are eligible for a free hearing test and a review of your hearing aids at Clarity Hearing Solutions to ensure you are getting the most out of them and they don’t end up at the bottom of the drawer. Call us and book a review appointment today on 1300 252 748 or find a clinic near you to contact.

Eligible for Office of Hearing Services Fully Funded Hearing Aids?

Download the Application for Hearing Services Voucher [New Clients Only] form to gain access. OHS patients who have previously been through the program and whose voucher has expired will need to phone 1800 500 726 and speak with an Office of Hearing Services (OHS) about a ‘Return Service Application Form’.

What if what I want isn’t covered by OHS?

If you want extra features above what the government pays for with your hearing aids you can choose to put the government unding towards more advanced hearing aids (top up) and obtain extra features but we find that in the majority of cases, the funding provided by OHS allows us to recommend devices that are very capable and fit for purpose.

If you are a DVA recipient with a Gold Card or White Card for hearing we may also able provide many higher levels of technology free of charge should they be required (conditions apply).

Don’t delay. Talk to Clarity about your options for free hearing assessments and hearing aids.
