 EyeCare's VISION SERVICE "ON SITE" VISION CARE FACILITIES
EyeCare's Vision Service has the experience and knowledge of running professional
and profitable vision centers. Whether we create a start-up for
a medical center, corporation medical clinic, or union center or
whether EyeCare's Vision Service is engaged to manage an existing facility,
we can handle any situation.
The most
important reason for adding vision care services to an existing
medical facility is the advantage of ONE STOP SHOPPING. Patients
that come to a medical center for their medical needs look for the
convenience of having all their medical needs including ancillary
care such as vision, dental and hearing. Patients with a
good experience in one area will likely seek other services within
the same facility.
An EyeCare's Vision Service vision center can help to add revenue while decreasing
costs and overhead to an existing facility. Our simple business
model and list of advantages of a managed facility will demonstrate
that we understand the challenges of making a vision center an asset.
THE
ADVANTAGES OF "ON SITE" VISION CARE SERVICES
- The addition
of eyeglass dispensaries and the assumption of optometry responsibilities
by EyeCare's Vision Service provides numerous benefits.
:
- ONE STOP
SHOPPING a tried and true phrase. Patients that come to a
medical center for their medical needs look for the convenience
of having all their medical needs including ancillary care such
as vision, dental and hearing "under one roof". Patients
with a good experience in one area will likely seek other services
in the same facility.
- Providing
additional services is paramount in keeping the patient "in
house" and increasing patient volume. The addition
of vision care is a further avenue to accomplish that task.
- Advertising
and marketing of eyeglass services will increase the public's
awareness of all the services provided at the centers and
therefore increase the patient flow to all services.
- EyeCare's Vision Service has contracts with major vision care panels directly
servicing many major unions and companies. This serves as a source
of patient referral to vision care services and gives considerable
exposure to all the ancillary services the group has to
offer.
- EyeCare's Vision Service vision centers provides direct revenue and revenue
savings, in that the ODs employed would no longer be a payroll
responsibility to the center. Currently, an OD can earn $50 to
$65 per hour, plus benefits. On a 40-hour week this equates to
approximately $104,000 per year plus benefits (20%) and we will
pay a mutually agreed upon rental fee.
- With an
EyeCare's Vision Service center, the facility is provided with professional
management in an area of service that requires expertise and
experience that goes beyond that of retail optical. Providing
these medical-retail services, in volume, in a medical clinic
environment, requires a certain operating intensity that few professional
or business people in the optical field can appreciate or deliver.
- No direct
out of pocket expense to the facility is needed to provide
these services to your patient population, as EyeCare's Vision Service
will bear all set up and operational costs.
