A Rookie MRT’s Perspective

Posted on December 9th, 2009 by Jill N

Will B. works in VSP’s Customer Service department, part of our fabulous team that achieved the prestigious Service Quality Measurement, Inc. (SQM) Award of “World Class Customer Satisfaction” for the seventh year in a row! He shares his experience as a first time Mobile Response Team (MRT) member with the VSP Mobile Eyes® program.WillB

I was fortunate enough to be selected to go on the last Mobile Eyes trip for 2009 and am quickly experiencing first hand, the work is truly some of the most rewarding work I have done with VSP.

We are half way done with our trip to Central California, and so far everything is running smoothly.  Before the trip, I had a general idea of what to expect.  I was impressed that we have most everything onboard that you would find in a VSP doctor’s office.  We can read the prescription off the patient’s current glasses, we can test for Glaucoma and even do an auto-refraction for the doctor.  The VSP doctors who come on board and provide the exams have everything they need to complete a comprehensive exam.  They even dilate patient’s eyes if they need to get a closer look.

Posted on December 7th, 2009 by Jill N

Jeff H. is a channel partner manager with Eyefinity®/OfficeMate®. He shares his recent volunteer experience during an educational event at the San Francisco Exploratorium with our mobile clinic, SeeZar.

Eye See with VSP at the Exploratorium in San Francisco, CAI haven’t been to the Exploratorium since my own grade school field trip.  As I stepped into the spacious, interactive museum in San Francisco during the recent Eye See: Free Day with VSP Vision Care, I was reminded what a unique educational landmark the Exploratorium is – an exhibit hall filled will hands-on experiments that are not just educational, but entertaining (for kids and adults)!

Guest blogger – Steve Baker, chief technology officer for Eyefinity/OfficeMate:

Professional cyclists employ a technique called “drafting.” You might have seen this form, where cyclists ride very close to one another. The objective of drafting is to use your time and energy as wisely as possible, allowing you to win the race. As an organization, Eyefinity/OfficeMate is committed to helping our users win the race. We are helping our users “draft” by conserving their time and energy with our latest innovation… the Virtual User Group Meeting. Picture 64

Rather than ask our customers to leave their businesses and travel to an on-site meeting, we are hosting a virtual user’s group meeting over the web. Over the next five days, twenty-four classes ranging from managing your practice’s financial performance to our popular ExamWRITER boot camp series will be delivered to more than 2,000 users… and that number continues to grow.

Giving access to this type of content over the net without having to leave your office is something we hope our users will find easy and convenient.

Leave me a comment here on the blog or feel free to drop me a line at sbaker@eyefinityofficemate.com with your thoughts. I’m also interested in your Tour de France predictions and if Lance will do it once again.

Thanks!
~Steve

I love cycling. It’s a great sport that also affords an opportunity to get away from television and media in general. It seems that ever day I’m pelted with new brands. Products. Companies; Services. You name it. I can hardly keep up with it but every now and then something exciting and unique comes along that grabs my attention. Well, I’d like to share with you something that I hope grabs you like it did me … The VSP Global brand.

We recently announced a new brand that ties together all of our diverse companies. Pulling together industry leading companies like Marchon and Eyefinity/OfficeMate enables our companies to be much much more than just the sum of our individual parts. We can offer integrated products in benefit programs, the latest in frame fashion, advanced optical lab services, and technically superior business management solutions. The best part? Working together we can create fantastic and unique programs that you will benefit from. Here’s two quick examples:

EyeHealthCheck+: Want to increase patient satisfaction and grow your revenue? VSP doctors can jump into this program that gives them access to Optos‘ retinal imaging technology at great pricing. New optomap installations also come with a free ExamWRITER equipment integration software license for OfficeMate users.

Healthcare Technology Program: VSP doctors who are looking to update their old software but are unsure of the price can take advantage of this risk-free offer from VSP Global through Eyefinity/OfficeMate which gives current OfficeMate users ExamWRITER electronic medical records at no initial software license fee, and gives first time users the whole package: OfficeMate Suite or OfficeMate Enterprise with ExamWRITER at no initial software license fee. This offer will prepare VSP doctors to take advantage of federal stimulus money which will become available to eyecare professionals who use electronic medical records. How great is that?

We’re hard at work developing new programs that leverage all of the companies under the VSP Global brand. Check out the latest video Please enable Javascript and Flash to view this VideoPress video.

Drop me a line on your feedback. I’d love to hear from you, especially if you love cycling!

VSP and Marchon: Delivering the Best in Eyecare

Posted on August 18th, 2008 by Rob L.

I have some exciting news to share today; VSP acquired Marchon , one of the three largest eyewear companies in the world.

VSP and Marchon are optical industry trailblazers with complimentary leadership experience in eyecare and eyewear. Blending the exceptional products, services, and expertise of Marchon with VSP creates a more integrated eyecare delivery platform.

The partnership allows us to compete more effectively in the global marketplace, and enhance our premier supply network. Improved turnaround times, quality, service, and savings will benefit eyecare professionals, VSP members, and our customers.

Another unique aspect is the merger of Marchon’s OfficeMate Software Solutions with VSP’s Eyefinity to establish the leading eyecare business solutions organization in North America.

These important developments expand the capabilities of the VSP Family of Companies, which now deliver:

Eyecare benefits

A portfolio of internationally-recognized eyewear brands

Integrated eyewear design and manufacturing capabilities

Practice-management technology

Custom interior designs and merchandising systems

Today we welcome Marchon to VSP; together we’ll reach new heights by focusing on quality, service, and operational excellence.

What’s next? Well, we’re committed to continuously strengthening our business, so stay tuned as we announce further efforts to deliver the best in eyecare and eyewear.
