People affected by hearing loss are being asked to share their experience of using NHS services as part of a review by Monitor.
The health sector regulator wants to find out whether those patients offered a choice of different hearing aids and tests feel their interests are better served than those who are not given a choice.
It is thought that around 500,000 over-55s in England who suffer from hearing loss and use the relevant NHS services are able to choose between different providers.
