    I wouldn't bother getting out of bed if I had to see 50 customers to make $1250.

    Yeah, I'm with you. I'd take care of 50 kids a day, 5 days a week for $325k. After all, in an 8 hour day, that's all of 6 kids an hour. I could handle that, and still have time to put up 462 posts on Optiboard (or 12,000)

    What a marvelous sence of humor you have. As long as the kids are goats, you'll have plenty of time to post.

    No, goats eat up the dispensary furniture and don't sit still during the exam. We follow the VSP model and try to make most of our money off of sheep.

    On my VSP account it's under VSP Online then Update Provider information (in the quick links box) then view or update fees and it's a link under Medicaid, Regional Network Plan (RNP), Advantage, and Elements Plan Fees

    I got a letter from Altair/VSP today saying I had to send back my dusty case of Otis and Piper frames or they would be charging me for each frame. And I have to pay shipping. Boo I say.

    Does anybody see people with these element plans? I think I've had like 2 teenage boys over the last 3 years with this plan, and we do a TON of charity work with local churches, Lions Club etc. I think it stinks I have to pay to ship this heavy box back full of frames we never wanted nor asked for.

    I got that letter also. I am waiting for my rep to call me back. The only reason I have them is for gift certificates, which is rare. I would hate to turn them away because I had to return the frames. I didn't realize about the return shipping fees. I have some USPS large flatrate boxes it will fit. IDK if they are still available. When I got them a couple years ago they were called the board game box. Before I do that I will be discussing with my Altair rep as well.

    UPDATE: The Otis and Piper's do NOT fit in the flat-rate box!

    They can have it back. It's called a "call tag" or a "MarchonVSP sales rep".

    I bet it would cost me $20 to ship and $20 to insure. About what I get in reimbursement for a new Flexon, digital Unity PALs with Transitions and Unity AR.

    (I bet the Premier Practices get to keep their kit, and VSP sends them some Mahi Mahi vouchers.)

    Call for a "call tag" and verify you only have to send only the frames like we did.
