From 1 July 2026, cochlear implant services are delivered through a national partnership between The Hearing House and the Southern Cochlear Implant Programme (SCIP).

The Aotearoa Cochlear Implant Programme (ACIP) is funded by Disability Support Services (DSS), Ministry of Social Development.

• The Hearing House delivers services for people living from Taupō to Cape Reinga.
• The Southern Cochlear Implant Programme (SCIP) delivers services for people living south of Taupō.

Together, our organisations provide publicly funded cochlear implant assessment, implantation, rehabilitation and lifelong support for eligible children and adults across Aotearoa New Zealand.
