Ocular Prosthetics Insurance Information
Hetzler Ocular Prosthetics Inc. is the leading eye prosthetics provider in Fishers, IN. It’s our mission to provide quality vision prosthetics in a way that ensures your comfort and ease during the entire process.
We understand that the insurance component of receiving your new vision prosthetics can be tricky to navigate. While we recommend consulting with your insurance provider before you meet with us, we’re able to work with most insurance companies directly. We do whatever we can to ensure that you get the custom eye prosthetics you need for a better quality of life.
Will Insurance Cover my Eye Prosthesis?
Ocular prostheses are considered medically necessary; therefore, ocular prosthetic services are covered by most health insurance plans. Hetzler Ocular participates with Medicare—including Medicare Advantage Plans HMO/PPO. We also work with Aetna, Anthem BCBS, CareSource, Humana, Indiana University & United Healthcare commercial plans. We contract with Indiana Medicaid & most Medicaid expansion plans such as Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP), MDWISE & Hoosier Healthwise (HHW). We are also contracted with Kentucky Medicaid, which includes Wellcare & Passport. Aetna Better Health & Humana work with us as well.
Keep in mind policies vary. Coverage for an ocular prosthetic is considered durable medical equipment/prosthetics under the outpatient medical benefits of your health plan. Ocular prosthetics are not covered under vision benefits. You may call your insurance company to check for Durable Medical Equipment (DME)—Prosthetic benefits.
