The Comprehensive Medical Assistance Program (PAMI) in Argentina provides coverage in otorhinolaryngology, including the provision of hearing aids for enrolled individuals with hearing loss. To access this service, a procedure must be followed through the PAMI website, where the professional who will attend to the patient can be selected.
The hearing aids supplied by PAMI are 100% programmable and adjustable, capable of adapting to the user's needs. Additionally, a one-year operation guarantee is provided without manufacturing defects in the device, and three months of warranty for the mold used for its adaptation.
To request a hearing aid through PAMI, it is necessary to present documentation such as the National Identity Document, an electronic medical order from a PAMI system otorhinolaryngologist indicating the need for the hearing aid, and recent audiometries performed by a specialist in the system or privately.
It is important to highlight that PAMI members have various channels of communication for inquiries, such as an emergency number, the PAMI Listens service, and other contact channels with the institution. Otorhinolaryngological medical care guarantees comprehensive coverage for those in need, always under the guidance and monitoring of specialized professionals.
