Vision Program for HMO Members with a Materials Allowance
Your vision program includes a routine annual eye exam for you and your eligible dependents for the same cost as your office visit copayments. A referral from your primary care physician is not necessary.
You and your eligible dependents can also get one pair of eyeglasses or contact lenses every 12 or 24 months, depending on your plan design. These discounts are applied to the cost and then the amount of your materials allowance is subtracted. You only pay the remaining balance.
Please note: Benefits may vary according to plan design. Check your Certificate of Healthcare Benefits booklet for details.
