At Shvartsman Eyecare, PC, in Skokie our goal is promote good eye health and enable you to have the clearest vision possible. We accept several types of vision insurance, cash, checks, and most credit cards. If you require a breakdown of costs, please let us know.
Vision Insurance
We will work directly with you and your vision insurer to submit claims regarding your vision care. We strive to ensure that you understand your insurance coverage and will answer any questions you may have regarding your benefits. Many current vision plans are designed to cover the basic vision-related costs, but not all costs associated with eye care. Most plans often require a co-payment for an office appointment as well as additional costs that are covered by the insured patient. We are in network providers for Medicare and Eyemed Vision, including their subsidiaries BCBS of Illinois, Aetna Vision, Humana Vision, UniCare and Spectera.

Flexible Spending Accounts
Many employers are offering Flexible Spending Account (FSA) options to employees. Sometimes these are referred to as cafeteria
plans and are elective, supplemental insurance savings plans. These plans are designed to let you save money in an account, pre-tax, to pay for additional medical expenses such as eye exams, glasses, contacts, and often laser vision surgery. Check with the benefits administrator at your work to see if you are eligible for this program. FSAs can typically be used in conjunction with any vision insurance plan to offset any out-of-pocket costs on your behalf.
Self Pay/ Prompt Pay Options
For patients without vision insurance, we gladly offer a prompt payment discount when payment is made at time of service. You will also be eligible for our special competitive internet pricing on most contact lenses.
