At Valley Eye Institute, we believe that each of our patients from western Ohio deserves the highest level of personalized eye and vision care, regardless of how much they earn. We understand that some of the services we provide are not covered by insurance, and that our patients may incur some out-of-pocket costs for treatment. To help our patients fit care into their budgets, we offer multiple payment and financing options.
Medical insurance providers often require pre-authorization for eye and vision care services. Before your appointment with us, please discuss any pre-authorization requirements with your insurance company.
We will check your vision benefit eligibility and make every attempt to help you understand and make the most of your benefits. It is important to understand that things can change between the eligibility check and the actual payment of the claim. For example, changes in insurance, lapse of time, new benefit years, claims that arrive to the payer after eligibility was checked, and purchases made between checking eligibility and placing an order for glasses or contacts. A quote of benefits is not a guarantee of benefits or payment. Charges not covered by your insurance company or benefit plan, as well as any co-payments, deductibles, and coinsurance amounts, are your responsibility.
If your treatment is deemed to be elective (not medically necessary), it may not be covered by insurance. However, it is possible to pay for your out-of-pocket costs with funds from a medical spending account, like an FSA or HSA. We can also help you learn more about medical financing with CareCredit.
