Reading this record
The entry was last refreshed in October 2022. That is neither fresh nor ancient by the standards of this metro, where 1 of 4 records were updated in 2024 or later and 1 predate 2020.
For local context: Lock Haven holds 3 registered eye care practices in this snapshot, 2 of them optometry and 1 ophthalmology, in ZIP codes including 17745. 1 of them took an NPI before this practice did. The closest is Brandt Eyecare Inc in Lock Haven, 0.1 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 Pennsylvania boards hold the licensing record, and the practice itself is the only source for what it charges today.

What to expect to pay at an ophthalmology practice like this
The NPI registry holds no prices, so nothing here is a quote from Susquehanna Eye Associates LLC. 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 3 optometry practices on the Lock Haven page if you only need a prescription.
