“FLEXIBLE SPENDING” OR “CAFETERIA” PLANS

Many employers offer flexible spending accounts to help offset their employees’ medical expenses. Flexible spending accounts may allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars for certain medical costs, including LASIK. Open enrollment periods are short and only occur once a year. Ask your employer about deducting pre-tax dollars from your paycheck to realize savings on your laser vision correction procedure.


MEDICAL AND VISION INSURANCE

While most medical and vision insurance plans consider laser vision correction an elective procedure, some plans cover a portion of the cost. As benefits change frequently, please check with your employer’s human resources department to determine your current benefits under both your medical and vision insurance policies. If you have additional questions, bring your insurance cards when you come to the clinic for your next appointment and we will be glad to help you find the answers.

We accept Vision Service Plans (VSP). VSP helps you save on vision services, plus an additional $500 to $3,000 if you have a VSP premiere plan! San Francisco Bay Area companies in the VSP family include PG&E, Facebook, Yahoo, Marvell, Symantec, Genentech and more. Call us, we’ll confirm your benefits.


IRS TAX DEDUCTIBILITY

In some cases, your laser vision correction procedure can qualify as a tax-deductible medical expense. You may be able to deduct some, or all, of your fees, subject to the normal IRS guidelines covering medical expense deductions. Please consult with your tax advisor regarding your specific situation.
