Using Out-of-Network Providers
Members who elect to use an out-of-network provider must pay the provider in full at the time of service and submit a claim to Avēsis for
reimbursement. Reimbursement levels are in accordance with the out-of-network reimbursement schedule previously listed. Out-of-network benets
are subject to the same eligibility, availability, frequency of benets, and limitation and exclusion provisions of the plan, and are in lieu of services
provided by a participating Avēsis provider. Out-of-network claim forms can be obtained by contacting Avēsis’ Customer Service Center or your group
administrator, or by visiting www.avesis.com.

Some provisions, benets, exclusions, or limitations listed herein may vary depending on your state of residence.
Limitations:
This plan is designed to cover eye examinations and corrective eyewear. It is also designed to cover visual needs rather than cosmetic options. Should

7) Any eye examination or corrective eyewear required by an employer as a condition of employment and safety eyewear;
8) Services or materials provided as a result of Workers’ Compensation Law, or similar legislation, required by any governmental agency whether
