Vision Discount Plans

Vision Discount Plans are not insurance. These plans do not pay for any products or services. Instead they offer discounts on the price of products or services from participating vendors and providers. Discount plans and their marketing representatives are not regulated by the Department of Financial Services or any other governmental entity. Medical Discount Plans are not a licensed insurance product even when sold by licensed insurance agents. If the program offers an insurance component, such as accident insurance, or implies it is underwritten or affiliated with an insurance company, then the marketing representative must be licensed as an insurance agent and the insurance component must be filed and approved by the Department of Financial Services. For questions about a Medical Discount Plan's complaint history, individuals may contact their local Better Business Bureau.
