Reading this record

The entry was last refreshed in July 2023. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 2 of 7 records were updated in 2024 or later and 3 predate 2020.

For local context: Batesville holds 7 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 4 of them optometry and 3 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 72501. No other practice in the city took its NPI earlier than this one, which makes it the longest-registered address here. The closest is Batesville Eye Surgery Center Inc in Batesville, 0.0 miles away.

None of this is a licensing check. CMS issues an NPI so a provider can be identified in billing transactions, and states plainly that issuance does not ensure or validate that the holder is licensed or credentialed. The Arkansas boards hold the licensing record, and the practice itself is the only source for what it charges today.

Also registered at this address

2 other organizations hold an NPI at the same street address. Shared suites and multi-specialty buildings are common, and it is worth knowing which entity you are actually booking with.

What to expect to pay at an ophthalmology practice like this

The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Sloan Eye Clinic. Based on this site's own price research, an ophthalmology practice typically charges $150 to $300 or more for an exam without insurance, against a national average of about $136 and roughly $25 once a vision plan pays its share.

Ophthalmology visits are usually medical rather than routine, which changes who pays: medical insurance and Medicare Part B cover a medically necessary exam, while a routine refraction for glasses is normally not covered. Ask whether the visit will be billed as medical or routine before you book, and compare with the 4 optometry practices on the Batesville page if you only need a prescription.
