Vision insurance helps with the cost of an eye exam, eye care, eye
wear, or other vision related expenses. Your vision insurance policy
plan gives you the benefit of being able to receive regular eye exams
and eye care.
To maximize your eligibility and coverage, we work with VSP, as well
as most of the major medical insurance policies.
A vision insurance policy plan like VSP can help with the cost of an
eye exam, eye care, eye wear, or other vision related expenses. The
coverage you receive from your vision insurance gives you the benefit
of being able to receive regular eye exams that allow you to be
proactive in looking after your eyesight.
Some individuals are fortunate enough to have "Routine Vision
Insurance" through their employer's medical coverage policy. Some
plans pay toward the optometric eye exam only, others will sometimes
pay towards the contact fitting fee and some even pay toward
materials.
If you are uncertain about your benefit eligibility, you will need to
check with your human resource department or call your insurance
company directly and inquire about eligibility.
Questions you should ask:
If your medical policy allows you to see any eye doctor of your choice
we will verify your coverage, file the claim electronically and accept
assignment of benefits for you.
To verify your vision coverage, we will need a phone number for
verification of benefits, a group, plan or policy number, the social
security number of the insured, member and patient's date of birth,
and name of employer. Verification of insurance benefits must be
verified 24 hours prior to your appointment.
When you arrive for your appointment we will need a copy of your
insurance plan policy card. You will be expected to pay in full the
difference in the amount allowed at time of service. If for any reason
the insurance company pays less than quoted you will be responsible
for any amount unpaid.
