My Dad has Phonak hearing aids and has the iCOM TVLink.

He wears a module around his neck, and the base unit plugs in to the TV
audio, or his ham radio. Pipes the audio directly in to the hearing aids
via bluetooth. Works very well. The bluetooth devices available on ebay
and similar are designed for the most part to support wireless
headphones, etc, and don't work with the Phonak, at least the few I
tested. There are several bluetooth profiles, and they do different
things.
