Loss coverage

Should your sound processor go missing during the initial system or upgrade warranty period, our loss coverage allows you to replace it completely free of charge* (one time only per device, per side). Once you have made a claim on the sound processor, the loss coverage is no longer available.

Note: Cochlear technology is constantly evolving. Next-generation sound processors are designed to deliver new capabilities and work with your existing implant. As new technology is developed, older sound processors may become outdated and obsolete, and Cochlear may decide to phase out production and support of aging technology. Keep in mind Cochlear™ Nucleus® Sound Processor technology that is compatible with your current implant will remain available so that you can continue to hear without the need for additional surgery.
