2. Members can pay the open access provider directly and submit a request for reimbursement to VSP, using the following procedure:
a. Pay the open access provider the full amount and request an itemized copy of the bill. The bill should separately detail the charges for the eye exam and materials, including lens type.b. Include the following information with the bill:
i. The name, address, and phone number of the open access provider
ii. The covered member's ID number
iii. The covered member's name, address, and phone number
iv. The name of the group
v. The patient's name, date of birth, address, and phone number
vi. The patient's relationship to the covered member (such as self, spouse, child, student, etc).

c. Send a copy of the itemized bill(s) with the above information to VSP at:
VSP
P.O. Box 997105
Sacramento, CA 95899-7105
