Insurance
At Pacific Eye Associates, we aim to make insurance simple and transparent so you can focus on your eye health. Medical insurance can be billed for the diagnosis and treatment of eye conditions. We accept most major medical insurance plans, including Medicare, Medi-Cal ,and PPO plans. Because coverage can vary, we recommend calling our office at 415-923-3007 to confirm your specific plan before your visit. Our team is happy to help you understand your benefits and what to expect.
Coverage often depends on your plan type:
- PPO plans — We accept most PPO plans. PPO plans typically do not require a referral.
- HMO plans — Most HMO plans require prior authorization from your primary care physician (PCP) before your visit.
- EPO plans — We generally do not accept EPO plans.
