Over the last few years, we noticed how vision plans were making things more
expensive for our patients. We have worked with vision plans to try and get a healthy balance of affordable options and quality eyewear that will last. We know its tiring watching things get more and more expensive and
increasing complication. We refuse to accept plans that limit the ability to deliver the level of care people deserve because unnecessary complication and causing patients to pay more than without vision coverage.
We have watched how vision plans raise rates members pay but lower how much they contribute to patients benefits.
Our patients deserve more, the best care possible, and we refuse to settle on plans that put profit over the patient. Insurances or vision plans should not make your care be slower, force you to use inferior products against your and your doctors will, or force you to use products that benefits them more than you.
Vision plans cost roughly $12 per month (VSP 2021). That’s $144 per year plus the required copay of around $20. That is $165 paid just to get your discount when our Exam Package is only $145. Vision plans also cause glasses prices to be artificially inflated so everyone gets a “discount.” If your employer pays for your plan, then it could cost you less; however, if they would pay you that money instead, it would save you to not use a vision plan. MONEY SAVING TIP: all eye doctor expenditures are health costs that Flex Spending and HSA accounts cover TAX FREE!
Reminder: Vision plans are just agreed discounts. They rarely insure anything with your eyes. Your medical insurance does cover eye exams for eye problems that glasses do not fix!
If the reason you need to see us is considered medical, or if your eye doctor requested you come back for medical reasons, then your medical plan covers the visit. If you are unsure how your visit will be billed, give us a call or text, and we can help out!
The quickest way to find out who your vision plan is through is usually a coworker or your HR department. Continue to the next section to learn how to use your out of network benefits
