A wireless communication device for minimizing electromagnetic interference with hearing aid devices. The wireless communication device comprises a lower housing (112, 312, 412, 512, 612) and an upper housing (114, 314, 414, 514, 514) adjacent to the lower housing. The lower housing (112, 312, 412, 512, 612) supports a wireless transceiver (108, 202) capable of producing an electromagnetic field, and the upper housing includes an ear piece (104, 504, 604). For one embodiment the upper housing (114, 314, 514, 614) and all components supported by the upper housing consist of non-electromagnetic conductive material. For other embodiments, all electromagnetic conductive components of the upper housing (414, 514, 614) are restricted to an area adjacent to an ear piece (104, 504, 604) of the upper housing.
