Medicare Audiology Access Improvement Act of 2025

This bill expands Medicare coverage to include audiology services (hearing and balance assessments, and treatment starting in 2027) for beneficiaries. It allows qualified audiologists to provide these services directly without requiring a physician referral or supervision, beginning January 1, 2027. Medicare will pay 80% of the lesser of the actual charge or the fee schedule amount for these services, and audiologists will be recognized as eligible providers in certain clinics. The changes apply to services furnished on or after January 1, 2027.
