The Partnership offers a nationwide vision care plan to manage the cost of eyeglasses and contact lenses, as well as eye examinations. The vision plan, administered by MetLife, allows you to pay for vision benefits on a pre-tax basis. You do not need to be enrolled in any of the Partnership’s medical plans to participate in the vision plan.
The vision care plan provides coverage for prescription lenses and frames, contact lenses (in lieu of eyeglasses), and a complete annual eye exam for a low monthly premium.
Under the plan, you can visit an optometrist or ophthalmologist within the MetLife Vision network or you may choose to visit an out-of-network provider, which may result in higher out-of-pocket costs. If you visit an out-of-network provider, you must submit a claim to be reimbursed.
The vision plan covers:
- One vision exam every 12 months ($10 co-pay in network)
- Eyeglass lenses or contacts once every 12 months ($25 materials co-pay)
- Frames once every 12 months (covered in full up to $130 allowance)
If you have questions about the vision care plan or would like to find a network provider, you may call 1-855-MET-EYE1 or visit www.metlife.com/mybenefits. Use group name “Cumberland County Partnership for Children” or group number “5959489” to register if you have not yet done so. MetLife Vision does not issue identification cards to enrolled members.
