    It was advertised on optiboard on Jan 11 2018 by Piramida for $1300. I have also seen one on ebay for $1200. So, yes, they are out there. A little too rich for my taste. If superabrasive works...

    Hard to profit

    I think it's almost impossible to do well with the frames. There are two choices when it comes to frames: (1) you can sell them a frame that is supplied directly from Spectera itself (2) you can...

    Andrea,

  7. Parsing through the math

    I agree with these points because we also run a medical practice and it would be financial suicide to not check the payments made to us. The insurance companies make a lot of mistakes and there are...
  8. Is reconciling VSP, Eyemed and Spectera payments a waste of time?

    We used to have a system whereby we billed VSP but did not post any line by line charges or payments into our billing software. The person who instituted this system told me that VSP is so accurate...

    If you don't pay eyefinity about $500/year you will not have a "website" link on the VSP find a doctor website. In other words, when patients look you up on that site they will not see a link that...

    Premier

    Still a little confused about it (even after getting info sent from VSP). Apparently you have to buy $15,000 worth of Marchon/Altair "net frames purchased in the last 12 monhts". Does this mean...

    Is it worth it

    Jubilee,
    I remember this same kind of discussion when HMO's began to march into our area in So. California. We recognized them for the soul sucking, penny pinching, amoral pragmatists that they...

    Unity as another way of eking out profit from VSP

    Additional point: Seems like selling Unity progressives is another way to eke out a small profit from VSP. We've seen no downside to these PAL's in terms of adaptability and patient feedback. If...
