Clemson Eye is a contracted provider for a large number of health plans including Medicare, Medicaid, BCBS, VSP, EyeMed, and many more. If we are contracted with your plan, then we will file your insurance to cover your eye exam or treatment and you'll pay us the difference, if there is any owing.  The Medicare deductible for 2012 is $140.  Early in the year, many patients will have some financial responsibility to their provider until their deductibles are met. 

Please bring your insurance card with you to each visit. While we are happy to assist with your insurance questions, it is critical that you understand your particular coverage.  Call your insurance company or visit their website to understand your unique benefits and financial responsibility.  Ultimately, you are responsible to ensure your doctor is paid for their service to you.  Daily, we struggle for compensation from insurance companies and are extremely grateful for our patients who take a proactive stance with an unpaid claim.  Insurance companies are supported by you and promptly respond to your inquiries. 

If you have recently turned 65 years of age, please contact Medicare and proceed with registration.  Also, if your spouse is recently deceased and you were covered under his/her health insurance, then please review your policy to determine when your coverage expires.  In order to correctly file a medical claim, we must have information on the Policy Holder of your health plan.  If someone else has you listed on their insurance policy, please be sure that the policy is current and that we have all the correct information for the person who carries this policy as this is the information the insurance company will need to process the claim.  Likewise, if you are a minor, then we must have information on your guarantor or parent, under whose policy you are covered.  

The following list consists of Clemson Eye's contracted health plans.  Please scroll down the list to determine if we accept your insurance. If you don't see your insurance listed, please give us a call at our toll free number 855-654-2020 to determine if your eye exam will be covered.  New insurance plans are being added frequently.
