All members and their eligible dependent(s) that enroll in the City Health Plan, Blue Shield HMO, Health Net HMO or Kaiser HMO are also automatically enrolled in a vision plan that is administered by Vision Service Plan (VSP).
Under the vision plan, you have the choice of using a VSP network doctor or a non-VSP provider. It is to your advantage to use a VSP network doctor because covered services are provided to you at a higher benefit and you will have lower out-of-pocket costs.
If you do not enroll in an available medical plan option, you will not have vision plan coverage.
You can find a VSP network doctor in your area by visiting www.vsp.com or contacting VSP Member Services at (800) 877-7195. When you wish to receive services from a VSP network doctor, simply contact the doctor and make your appointment. VSP will then provide benefit authorization to the doctor. There are no ID cards issued for the vision plan.
To contact VSP, visit the Vision Service Plan web site or call VSP at (800) 877-7195. The HSS member group number for VSP is 12145878.
