Some of these include:
Attune Hearing is the only accredited hearing health care provider in Australia and we pride ourselves on being the largest independent provider, meaning we are not owned by hearing aid manufacturers. Our focus is on finding the right solution for you, our patient.
Which hearing aids are you eligible to receive as part of the program?
Attune is not owned by, or affiliated with hearing aid manufacturers. We pride ourselves on providing holistic hearing health care of the highest quality for every patient we see. Your hearing health is our priority and our goal is to provide you with the right solution.
Your audiologist will perform a comprehensive hearing assessment to accurately determine your level of hearing loss. Once this is complete, they will discuss your lifestyle and general health with you to determine the features and benefits that would suit you most in a hearing device specifically for your level of hearing loss. They will then have the necessary information to recommend the best solution for you.
Attune Hearing offers a wide range of hearing aids from leading manufacturers.

What is the easiest way to apply?
Contact the Attune client help team by calling 1300 736 702. The process of applying and determining if you are eligible for the program takes approximately 2 minutes. Once you have been approved over the phone you can then with the same Attune Help Officer book a hearing test appointment over the phone at any of Attune Hearing clinics around Australia.
Contact your local Attune clinic and one of our Client Advocates will be able to assist you in checking your eligibility and applying for the HSP. If you would prefer, you can apply online on the HSP website or fill out the New Client Application Form (please note that paper applications can take up to 4 weeks to process).
When you contact your Attune clinic, your client advocate will provide you with a copy of the medical certificate that needs to be filled out by your GP. This is to ensure that you are medically suitable to start wearing hearing devices. Once your application has been processed, you can attend your first appointment at Attune and start receiving services as part of the HSP.
