The Pennsylvania Code website reflects the Pennsylvania Code changes effective through 54 Pa.B. 488 (January 27, 2024).

28 Pa. Code § 25.201. Application.

§ 25.201. Application.

 (a)  Scope. This subchapter applies to all persons engaged in the business of selling or fitting hearing aids in this Commonwealth; except that physicians and audiologists are exempted from all provisions regarding hearing aid fitters.

 (b)  Authority. This subchapter is adopted under the act.

Notes of Decisions

   Since the legislature obviously believes that the license already held by physicians and audiologists is adequate proof of their competence to fit patients with hearing aids, they are not required to take a qualifying examination prior to obtaining a hearing aid dealers certificate. Pennsylvania Hearing Aid Dealers Association, Inc. v. Department of Health, 417 A.2d 1340 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1980); affirmed 430 A.2d 1150 (Pa. 1981).
