All Postoperative Care is Provided by Dr. Ellis and his Staff Some centers participate in various schemes whereby the referring doctor is paid large sums to provide postoperative care. This arrangement is termed co management and in some cases may border on fee splitting, which is illegal in California. Sometimes the referring optometrist may receive as much as $500 per eye, or more. These fees are often passed on to the patient and the center will charge them more for a procedure in which they pay for co management.At Ellis Eye we do not engage in fee splitting, or co management.
