Benefit Advisors: The NVA Difference

We are all faced with many healthcare-related choices. So, at NVA, we’re committed to helping people be smarter buyers of eye care and eyewear. We can help you, your clients and their members understand their vision benefit options—so everyone can make better vision care decisions. Our customized, high-quality vision benefit programs are affordable and offer several ancillary benefits that help members save.

More Choices

To meet the needs of the plan sponsors and members you serve, we offer a wider selection of eye care providers to choose from. With NVA, members have access to a national network of nearly 100,000 vision care access points, in private practice and at national, regional and local retail chains. They can select from an expansive selection of opticians, optometrists and ophthalmologists in our network.

Our provider network is credentialed initially and ongoing, and our audit program verifies that panel providers deliver quality vision care and comply with all program requirements.

NVA employs highly advanced data processing techniques to provide a tightly controlled claims management environment. Our services include participant and dependent eligibility validation, professional review, prior authorization, and duplicate claims checking.

Cost Savings

Our vision benefit programs provide the flexibility to deliver any type of vision program design, including insured and self-insured programs, as well as discount and combination plans, at a multi-year rate or fee guarantee. We offer aggressive network discounts through provider audits, which cut your client’s vision benefit costs.

We also reduce member out-of-pocket expenses through our special discounts and programs such as:

Fixed pricing on lens options and frame pricing control
Mail order replacement contact lens discounts integrated with the vision benefit
Laser surgery discounts
Hearing exam and hearing aid discounts
Additional eyewear discounts, after benefit is exhausted
Our industry exclusive consumer-driven NVA Smart Buyer^® program that informs members on how to save money on their eyewear purchases

We’re about more than just the money. At NVA, we believe in providing an excellent vision care benefit—without the high cost.
