Government Hearing Services Program

The Australian Government Hearing Services Program (HSP) provides eligible people with subsidised hearing services and products through an accredited hearing services provider such as Specsavers.

What can I receive?

HSP services available to eligible Specsavers customers include:

  • Quality, fully subsidised hearing aids with the option to contribute to upgraded hearing technology

  • Hearing Aid batteries and repairs, with no additional customer contribution or annual fee required

  • Advice on getting maximum benefit from your hearing aids

  • Further support and hearing services

Am I eligible?

To check if you’re eligible, visit the Australian Government Hearing Services Program or book a free 15‑minute hearing check with an audiology professional at your local Specsavers Audiology store.

How do I apply?

You can apply online, by post or in‑store with your audiology provider.
