Managing eyeglass benefit claims through opticians
The Social Insurance Bank (Banco de Previsión Social – BPS), guided by the aim to become more efficient and effective at managing Economic Benefits, has implemented online services to enable a beneficiary in need of eyeglasses to directly bring a prescription issued by an ophthalmologist and an identity card to an authorized optician, who then validates whether the benefit is to be granted or not.
The system verifies beforehand whether the user is eligible for the benefit or not, pending the granting or refusal of the benefit.
