More than 30 medical conditions, ranging from glaucoma to diabetes, can be detected during a routine eye examination. Founded in 1955, VSP began providing high quality, complete eye care services to members. Today, VSP is the nation's largest eye care provider and covers over 12 million Californians. VSP's provider network includes over 3,970 optometrists and ophthalmologists at 2,932 locations, providing 5,281 points of access throughout California. How the Plan Works Simply contact a VSP doctor. If you do not have a list of VSP member doctors, call VSP's Customer Service Department at 1-800-877-7239, or write to: VSP, Customer Service, P.O. Box 997100, Sacramento, CA 95899-7100. When making an appointment, identify yourself as a VSP member through the Healthy Families Program and provide the subscriber's identification number. The participating doctor will contact VSP to verify eligibility and plan coverage. At your appointment, your doctor will provide an eye examination and determine if eye wear is necessary. You pay only a $5 co-payment to the doctor for the eye exam and a $5 co-payment for glasses. Your doctor will bill VSP directly for covered services (you may be charged extra for non-covered cosmetic options). If you elect contact lenses, a $5 co-payment will be required for the eye exam. All VSP doctors provide both eye examinations and eye wear, providing a convenient "one stop" means of obtaining eye care services. Patient satisfaction is guaranteed when services are obtained from a VSP doctor. How to Choose Write VSP in the space provided on the form. |
