About Us

ECPA — Eye Care Plan of America — are trade names for First American Health Concepts, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of EyeMed Vision Care, LLC.

ECPA is dedicated exclusively to developing and marketing innovative vision programs and managed vision care for businesses and organizations nationwide. Incorporated in 1981, ECPA is headquartered in Cincinnati, OH.

All ECPA vision care programs are offered through a national network of more than 10,000 provider locations, independent providers and providers in national and regional retail stores. All ECPA providers agree to uniform preferred prices that deliver more value in scheduled benefits and significant savings that are always available in direct purchases.

Background and History

First American Health Concepts, Inc. was incorporated in Arizona in 1981 and first offered common stock publicly in October 1985. ECPA has grown steadily, developing and marketing directed and managed vision care programs for businesses and organizations nationwide. Initially, ECPA’s growth came from the development of a direct access preferred pricing program (ECPA Access) that today is the nation’s largest membership-based vision care savings program. This program is delivered through a national preferred provider (PPO) network of independent and retail optometrists, opticians and ophthalmologists. Through this same national network, ECPA has offered insured and self-funded managed vision care products (ECPA Select) since 1993. 

In 2001, ECPA was acquired by EyeMed Vision Care, LLC, a Cincinnati-based managed vision care company. 

The expansion from directed vision savings programs to full-benefit managed vision care required a multi-year investment in infrastructure to support the delivery of comprehensive benefits and claims administration. With this infrastructure in place, today ECPA provides paperless vision care with automated, 24-hour access to benefits and provider information.
