About Hearing Aid Compatibility
Persons using hearing aids can experience interference when using a wireless device that is held to the ear. To address that issue, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), pursuant to the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act, adopted rules requiring wireless device manufacturers and wireless providers to offer a minimum number of devices (with speakers and ordinarily held to the ear) that are compatible with hearing aids. GTA Wireless offers many wireless devices that meet the FCC’s hearing aid compatibility requirements.
Get info on what makes a wireless device hearing aid compatible and lists of current and recent hearing aid compatible devices offered by GTA. For additional information about hearing aid compatibility with wireless devices, see the FCC Guide or the Wireless Association’ accessibility guide.
FCC developed technical standards to determine if a device is hearing aid compatible.
