Before Your Appointment
If you have an appointment with a Richmond Eye Associates
doctor,
review the following checklist:
- Determine whether or not your individual insurance policy covers eye
examinations, and whether or not a referral or authorization for the
examination is required. Many primary care physician offices
require 24 to 48 hours in advance to generate an insurance referral, and
in most cases referrals will not be generated retroactively.
- Please note that a consultation request
from your medical doctor to see a doctor of Richmond Eye Associates' is
separate from an Insurance Referral Authorization.
- If you have an insurance authorization for an eye examination, make
sure that the appointment is scheduled within the required time frame
(usually 30 to 90 days).
- If you are a new patient, feel free to download and print these
New
Patient Forms to be filled out ahead of time. Bring them to your
appointment:
-
Insurance Copays, Medicare/Insurance Deductible amounts, and Refraction Fees and other Non-Covered Services are due at the time of service.
-
If you do not medical or vision coverage,
payment will be due at the time of service. Call the business office
at 804-270-0330 to determine what the expected fee will be, and to arrange
a payment plan if necessary.
