Vision

With the Vision Service Plan (VSP), you save money on eye exams, eyeglasses, lenses, contact lenses and more. VSP covers annual exams and corrective treatment to help you keep your vision strong and eyes healthy. If you choose not to enroll in this coverage, consider setting aside money in the Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)—if enrolled—to cover vision expenses you might have during the year.

Most providers accept VSP, but we recommend checking the VSP website to confirm or find an in-network doctor. VSP does not provide ID cards, so your provider will verify your coverage by your SSN. Your VSP group number is 12227971.

VSP providers will also take care of all the paperwork for you, saving you the hassle of filing claim forms and waiting for reimbursements when you receive services from out-of-network providers.

Below is a snapshot of vision coverage, and you can find the full coverage listed in the Vision Summary Plan Description found in the Documents section on this page. The Vision Plan covers one eye exam every calendar year and one pair of eyeglasses (or contact lenses) every calendar year for you and each covered dependent, after the applicable copay. As a best practice, we recommend confirming your applicable copay before getting service.

Here’s how to make the most of your vision benefits

Use VSP providers.

When you use a VSP network doctor for an eye exam or to purchase eyeglasses, you pay less than if you go outside the network. In addition, VSP doctors take care of all of your paperwork; there are no claims to file. If you don’t use a VSP doctor, you’ll receive an allowance toward your incurred expenses. You’ll pay for expenses when you receive them, then submit a claim for plan reimbursement.

File all claims promptly.

If you use an out-of-network provider, you must file your claim within six months of the date of service.

Use VSP discounts.
