WHAT IS HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY?
The Federal Communications Commission has implemented rules and a rating system
designed to enable people who wear hearing aids to more effectively use these wireless
telecommunications devices. The standard for compatibility of digital wireless phones with
hearing aids is set forth in American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard C63.19. There
are two sets of ANSI standards with ratings from one to four (four being the best rating): an “M”
rating for reduced interference making it easier to hear conversations on the phone when using
the hearing aid microphone, and a “T” rating that enables the phone to be used with hearing
aids operating in the tele-coil mode thus reducing unwanted background noise.
HOW WILL I KNOW WHICH WIRELESS PHONES ARE HEARING AID
COMPATIBLE?
The Hearing Aid Compatibility rating is displayed on the wireless phone box. A phone is
considered Hearing Aid Compatible for acoustic coupling (microphone mode) if it has an “MX”
or “MX” rating. A digital wireless phone is considered Hearing Aid Compatible for inductive
coupling (tele-coil mode) if it has a “TX” or “TX” rating.
