Isabella's law

Isabella Fager is a 6-year-old little girl from New York with a severe hearing impairment and currently her parents are forced to pay for her hearing aids out of their own pockets.

In the event that Isabella's parents and other parents in their position could not afford the thousands of dollars needed to purchase hearing aids, Isabella may have never had the chance to learn how to speak or be able to hear her mom and dad tell her that they love her.

This bill is especially important because children out-grow hearing aids frequently and in cases of children with progressive hearing loss, they will require stronger hearing aids as time goes on, making replacement hearing aids necessary and costly to the parents.
