>A spokesperson for Ontario's Ministry of Health said that prescribing hearing aids is restricted to licensed audiologists and physicians. "Should the AirPods Pro 2 be sold in Ontario as a hearing aid," said the spokesperson, "it would need to be done in accordance with the requirements [of the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991]."
Is there something about that act that prevents "licensed audiologists and physicians" from prescribing them?
