Delta Dental of California Expands Access to DeltaVision in Partnership with VSP Vision Care.
“Delta Dental is thrilled to offer DeltaVision, in partnership with VSP Vision Care, to our large and midsize customers, as we continue to add value to our market-leading suite of health-focused products and plans,” said Mohammad Navid, executive vice president and chief relationship and business development officer at Delta Dental of California. “As we accelerate our transformation from dental payer to health care company, Delta Dental will remain anchored in our purpose of increasing access to quality care, with an emphasis on driving innovation to meet and exceed our customers’ needs.”
DeltaVision connects Delta Dental members to VSP Vision Care’s robust nationwide Choice Network, which offers an average of five in-network doctors within six miles of most members. Through DeltaVision, members have access to VSP Vision Care’s network of more than 42,000 doctors, including private practice, retail options through Visionworks, and online options from Eyeconic. The plans offer vision care essentials that include annual eye exams, retinal screenings, eyeglasses, contact lenses, and more.
“Eye health, like oral health, plays a crucial role in a person’s overall health and wellbeing. During an eye exam, an optometrist can detect signs of up to 270 chronic health conditions, including diabetes,” said Dr. Valerie Sheety-Pilon, vice president of clinical and medical affairs at VSP Vision Care. “This collaboration is an important way to improve access to both vision and dental care and contribute to a healthier, more productive workforce.”
DeltaVision provides access to quality vision care that supports members’ overall health and wellness. Plans include Essential Medical Eye Care, offering supplemental coverage for urgent and medical eye care, and treatments for ongoing conditions such as diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, and more. Members receive the vision care they need with in-network savings and greater access to high-quality, affordable vision care, while employers benefit from industry-leading offerings, seamless administration, one point of contact, and consolidated billing.
