Vision/eye exam coverage

If you elect the health plan, you and your covered family members are eligible for an annual eye exam free of charge from an in-network provider.  We do not have a separate vision plan.  The only vision expense covered is the one free eye exam and it is covered and billed under the preventive portion of your medical plan.  It is important to note that this benefit will not cover any other type of procedure other than the exam.
 

When you call your provider to make your annual exam appointment, tell them specifically that your annual eye exam is covered as a “routine eye exam under the preventive care benefit of our medical plan”.  Upon your visit, provide the office with your medical ID card.

REMINDER!

You can pay for eye care including eyeglasses, contact lenses and corrective eye surgeries (LASIK or PRK) using your Health Savings Account (or your Flexible Spending Account or Health Reimbursement Account for those not electing the HSA).

Our medical plan covers one free annual eye exam per person.  This exam is covered under the preventive portion of your medical plan.

If your provider is unable to bill your vision exam to insurance, pay upfront and use this claim form to bill to insurance.
