How the Plan Works
Children’s offers one vision plan administered by UnitedHealthcare. Under this plan, you will have access to UnitedHealthcare’s full network, which includes private practice optometrists, ophthalmologists and convenient retail optical providers. The plan covers routine eye exams, lenses and frames, or contacts once every 12 months. You can see any provider, but when you stay in-network you pay a set rate and have no claims to file. When you see an out-of-network provider, you must file a claim to be reimbursed up to the out-of-network allowance.
