VISION INSURANCE

There are thousands of vision plans available to patients by their employers. Remember – your medical coverage may be separate or different from your vision coverage. We accept assignment on Vision Service Plan and Medicare. If you have a different vision plan, you will be required to pay for services rendered and be reimbursed by your insurance. We are happy to fill out any require forms and provide the proper receipts for these other insurance plans.

“How do I know if I’m covered by the insurance you accept?” Please log on to www.vsp.com, click on the “Members and Consumers” icon and you will be able to see if you are covered by our accepted insurance plan. **IMPORTANT** If your company has recently started this insurance plan, please contact your human resource or insurance department to make sure they have submitted the proper paperwork and you are in the VSP system.

We also accept Medicare on assignment. If you do not have any medical eye conditions, such as the start of cataracts or glaucoma, Medicare will NOT cover your eye exam. Frame and lenses are only covered after cataract surgery.

“What do I have to do if I AM on the accepted plan?” When you call our office for an appointment, tell the receptionist that you are on Vision Service Plan or Medicare and our staff will handle the rest. Please have the member’s social security number available. Vision Service Plan patients: We are able to obtain all the required paperwork over the Internet before your appointment. This information will include the coverage for your eye exam, frame, lenses, and/or contact lenses, and any required deductibles.

“What if I do NOT have your accepted insurance?” Please check with your human resource or insurance department and inquire on reimbursement procedures. Our staff will be happy to provide any documentation you may need.
