Are hearing aids tax deductible?

Yes! Hearing aid costs are deductible as medical expenses on your federal income taxes. According to irs.gov, you may also include batteries, repairs and maintenance costs. Another way to get some tax relief is to donate your older hearing aids to a qualified charitable organization that provides hearing aids to people who are unable to afford them. Contact us for donation forms. Discuss any tax deduction questions with your professional tax advisor.
