AARP members will be able to purchase prescription hearing aids starting at $699 per hearing aid through UnitedHealthcare, according to a Nov. 15 news release. 

These members will also have access to discounted pricing on over-the-counter hearing aids, after completing an online hearing assessment. 

Retailers began selling over-the-counter hearing aids Oct. 17, after President Joe Biden signed an executive order telling HHS to speed up the years-in-the-making promise.
