HOW DO I COLLECT REIMBURSEMENT AFTER VISITING AN OUT-OF-NETWORK PROVIDER?

  • When services and/or materials are obtained from an out-of-network provider, you have two reimbursement choices:
    1. Most out-of-network providers will submit a request for reimbursement on your behalf. This means you won’t need to pay your entire bill up front and will only be responsible for paying applicable copays and any balance above their out-of-network schedule.
    2. You can pay the provider directly and submit a claim to VSP for reimbursement by following the steps below:
      1. Visit the Benefits & Claims section of vsp.com to begin a claim.
      2. Fill out the claim form completely and submit an itemized receipt or statement that includes:
        • Doctor name or office name
        • Name of Patient
        • Date of Service
        • Each service received and the amount paid
