Can an optician accept insurance without an eye doctor join their plan?

I heard that an optician can't accept insurance without the business including an eye doctor as part of the business. Is this true? I thought I've seen opticians who accept insurance and don't have an eye doctor there. If they can, what insurance companies allow opticians only to join their plan?

I heard that most insurance plans allow independent opticians to accept insurance. While some plans, such as,VSP (Vision Service Plan) require a Doctor to be the primary owner as part of the business. Hope this help you.

I never heard that the insurance has something to do with the eye doctor.You should go to ask your optician.
