You don't have to prove it's life threatening, only that it seriously impacts your life. As I understand it this is a simple matter of telling your physician that it seriously impacts your life.If that happens, it's probably a good idea to gather some evidence that you've tried other treatments to no avail, or you might be excluded.

There are no other existing therapies that actually treat hearing loss, so I don't think you'd have to prove that you tried all and any alternative methods. TRT for an example is just a mind game, not an actual drug that treats the cochlea...
