Vision
Ardent offers vision coverage through VSP to help you save money on eye exams and eyewear.
You can see any vision provider you choose. The level of benefits you receive depends on whether you go in-network or out-of-network for services. To locate in-network providers, visit the VSP website.
Benefit Tip! You can also use the Health Care Flexible Spending Account to pay for vision expenses (that are not covered by another plan) on a pre-tax basis. Employees who are enrolled in the High Deductible Health Plan or the High Deductible Health Plan Plus may use the Limited Purpose Flexible Spending Account to pay for vision expenses.
