Yes. Lifeline Program supports wireless phones that are Hearing Aid Compatible (HAC). What makes a phone hearing aid compatible? Hearing aids operate in one of two modes – acoustic coupling or telecoil coupling.

Hearing aids operating in acoustic coupling mode receive and amplify all sounds surrounding the user; both desired sounds, such as a telephone’s audio signal, as well as unwanted ambient noise.

Hearing aids operating in telecoil coupling mode avoid unwanted ambient noise by turning off the microphone and receiving only signals from magnetic fields generated by telecoil-compatible telephones.

In the United States, about 25-30 percent of hearing aids contain telecoils, which generally are used by individuals with profound hearing loss.

The standard for compatibility of digital wireless phones with hearing aids is set forth in American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard C63.19. ANSI C63.19 contains two sets of standards: an “M” rating from one to four for reduced radio frequency (RF) interference to enable acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do not operate in telecoil mode, and a “T” rating from one to four to enable inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in telecoil mode.

A digital wireless phone is considered hearing aid-compatible for acoustic coupling if it meets an “M3″ rating under the ANSI standard.

A digital wireless handset is considered hearing aid-compatible for inductive coupling if it meets a “T3″ rating under the ANSI standard. A subscriber may request to receive either an “M” or “T” rated cellular handset depending on which they require. However, the mobile phone you receive is random according to Lifeline Program inventory.
