After careful analysis of our post-COVID financial status especially during these inflationary times, FirstView Associates faces a dilemma. We must either raise our fees and charges for glasses and/or contact lenses or eliminate direct participation with certain low reimbursement vision care plans. We have opted for the latter rather than increasing our fees.
To our patients covered under the Davis Vision plans, effective March 28, 2023, we will no longer be a participating provider. You may continue, as we hope, to be seen in our office paying directly as a private-pay patient. You may then file an out of network claim with Davis Vision for direct reimbursement at their prevailing rates. We will be happy to assist you in that process and/or you can obtain an out of network claim form on the Davis Vision website.
Please note that if you are a patient seen here for medical reasons, we will continue to bill your medical insurance for your care. Charges for glasses and/or contact lenses will be your direct responsibility for payment.
Thank you and we hope to continue our relationship with you as our patient.
