Can Hearing aids that are Bluetooth capable be used on a Windows 11 laptop?

I just got a new laptop that has Windows 11 as its OS. It has Bluetooth settings, but when I check it, I don't see any way to pair my hearing aids to it.

They sync to my iPhone and iPad.

Is there a way to add them so I can use them when I'm using the computer so I don't disturb others in the room?

    Hi, I just got a new phone this past week (s24 ultra) had a couple of problems getting the new phone to hookup correctly to bluetooth but that's fixed, while I was at my Hear USA dealer I talked to her about the Signia Bridging device pictured above. I was told the following:

    1. it is NOT COVERED by any insurance of any kind.
    2. it costs $300.
    3. And while it works it's not worth it.

    The new Apple Macs with the M2 and M3 (and some with the M1) chips do work with hearing aids

    "Selected" mac computers because m chips mac computers are becoming closer to be just bigger versions of iphones and ipads. So it is just a continuation of "made for iphones" hearing aids working at first with iphones only, then ipads and then quasi-ipads with m chips inside.

    But notice that the word "Bluetooth" is NOT on the web page at all.

    Therefore it is not "bluetooth", but the proprietary apple protocol.
