As a VSP contract laboratory, you are paid base lenses and additional fees for lens enhancements according to the fees set on your VSP Lab Lens Enhancements Fee Schedule. Signature and Choice/Advantage plans each have a distinct fee schedule card. Please be sure to consult the proper fee schedule when calculating payments.
When a manufacturer releases a new product and notifies VSP about it, we classify it according to design and analyze how it is priced in the private-pay market. If the technology and pricing are comparable to other products in the same category, it will be assigned an appropriate lens enhancement code. When a product does not fit comfortably into an established category, it is not available for use with VSP benefits.
Product placement and pricing are evaluated, when necessary, as a means to remain current with the market. We recognize that ours is a dynamic industry and that as new technologies are introduced and accepted, it is important to update VSP systems accordingly.
