Once your application has been approved, you will be contacted to establish a payment plan that is best suited for you. A signed contract agreeing to the terms of the payment plan and your down payment is required two weeks prior to your scheduled surgery date.
HMO / Health Insurance Coverage
Many patients ask if their health insurance or HMO policy will cover all or any part of the fee for refractive surgery. With rare exceptions, the major health insurers and HMOs do not cover any part of the fee for refractive surgery. This is not likely to change in the foreseeable future. However, you may wish to take advantage of the flexible spending account benefits if offered by your employer. Under the terms of these plans, you essentially pay for your surgery with pretax dollars and, in effect, save whatever your income tax percentage rate happens to be. Check with your employer to establish whether or not this benefit is available to you.
