Using Vision Insurance at Wesson and Mothershed Eye Center: A Guide to Reimbursement

We understand at that it is complicated to navigate insurance, especially when we are not in your insurance network. However, you can still benefit from our family-owned, private practice, which offers total vision care in one location. Here’s how you can get reimbursed by your insurance when using our services as an out-of-network provider.

What is Reimbursement, and How Does It Work?

Reimbursement is getting a refund from your insurance company for the expenses you incur when you receive services from an out-of-network provider like us. If your insurance plan includes out-of-network benefits, you can apply for reimbursement for various services such as eye exams, prescription glasses, and sunglasses.

How to Apply for Reimbursement

Complete An Out-Of-Network Claim Form

First, get an out-of-network claim form from your insurance company. If you are still waiting to see your provider listed on our website, these forms are usually available for download on your insurance company’s website.

Attach Your Itemized Receipt

After your visit, we will provide an itemized receipt. This receipt should include detailed information about your purchased services and products, which you must attach to your claim form.

Submit The Claim Form And Receipt To Your Vision Insurance Company

Submit the completed claim form and your itemized receipt to your insurance company. Note that most major insurance providers split the charge between frames and lenses, usually on a 50/50 basis. If you encounter any issues during this process, our team is here to help!
