Alberta Aids to Daily Living (AADL)
All hearing aid benefits to be provided through one program, effective July 1, 2010.
It will now be easier for Albertans, including seniors, who require hearing aids to get assistance to pay for them.
- As of July 1, 2010, eligible Albertans will receive their hearing aid benefits through AADL.
- After July 1:
- Eligible Income Support clients will receive all their funding through AADL.
- Low-income seniors will receive all of their funding through AADL rather than having to apply to multiple programs.
- This streamlined process will make it easier for Albertans who need hearing aids to get assistance to pay for them.

The AADL program helps Albertans with a long-term disability, chronic illness or terminal illness to maintain their independence at home, in lodges or group homes by providing financial assistance to buy medical equipment and supplies. An assessment by a health care professional determines the equipment and supplies that an Albertan can receive through this program.
Albertans pay 25 per cent of the benefit cost to a maximum of $500 per individual or family per year. Low-income Albertans and those receiving income assistance do not pay the up to $500 cost-share portion.
