Recently, Dr. Carl Moroff of NVA, shared with Employee Benefit Adviser, factors to consider when comparing vision networks.
Most people believe that “size matters” in regards to networks, but in the world of vision care there are other important factors to also consider when deciding which network matches the needs of your membership. To best assess which network is “right” for your members, ask questions in order to properly determine the following:
- Quality of the network
- Effectiveness of the network (does network offer a range of providers including ophthalmologists, optometrists, private practitioners, and optical retailers)
- Flexibility of the network (including hours of operation, languages spoken, etc.)
- Ownership of the network (no conflicts of interest)
