Default Vision Care

Does anyone know if the Anthem policy provides vision care for us as well as our dependents. I know we use to have it, but can't seem to find it within the Anthem benefits book.

It does but it's pretty restrictive - wife got a free exam but had to really search to find a place that would accept it - and then either contact or glasses but not both. Overall not bad.

Thanks guys. I just logged on to Davisvision.com and after a 2 minute registration, the system knew who I was and showed me that my wife and I were eligible for an exam as well as glasses. Perhaps now I'll be able to see myself coming back to work. But most probably not..

I wouldn't trust the PBB. Check out the health care section...It still hasn't been updated with the new insurance.

I biatched about it a couple of months ago, to our R&I chair. His response? Someone hit "print" at Kinkos before they should have.

Davis Vision is the same eye care we had before the change this last year-- actually descent coverage
