FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
regulations for wireless devices
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) has established requirements for digital
wireless mobile devices to be compatible with
hearing aids and other assistive hearing devices.
When individuals employing some assistive
hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants) use wireless mobile devices, they may
detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune than
others to this interference noise, and mobile
devices also vary in the amount of interference
they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a
rating system for wireless mobile devices to assist
hearing device users nd mobile devices that may
be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all
mobile devices have been rated. Mobile devices
that are rated have the rating on their box or a
label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user’s hearing device and
hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to
use a rated mobile device successfully. Trying out
the mobile device with your hearing device is the
best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
