Insurance
Insurance has become confusing because there are different types, and not all types require a referral from your family doctor. The place to start getting information about what your insurance requires is on the insurance card itself. If the card says you have a PPO (preferred provider organization) or POS (point of service), you will not need to get a referral from your family doctor before you come in for your Family Eye Group appointment.
If you have Medicare, you do not need a referral. However, there are many new plans this year which take the place of Medicare (even though you still pay the Medicare premium). Some of these plans require referrals. Others do not. If you are unsure, call the Customer Service phone number on your card. Getting a referral ahead of time is your responsibility. If you do not have a referral, you will need to either reschedule your appointment or accept responsibility to pay the entire charge for the appointment when you check out.
Your insurance card will also tell you how much your co-pay is. Please be prepared to pay your co-pay at check-in on the day of your Family Eye Group appointment.
Family Eye Group is a specialty practice, and insurance companies will not pay us for routine visits. If your visit is routine (meaning you have no medical problem affecting your eyes), you can still be seen at Family Eye Group by one of our optometrists. The fee for a routine visit will be around $110, and you will need to pay the fee when you check out.
Family Eye Group does not participate with most vision plans.
