Membersy launches D2C dental plans
Katherine E. Pfaff
Subscription-based dental company, membersy, has opened its Marketplace platform. The direct-to-consumer portal allows patients or entire families to shop for dental care through comparison and purchase options for membership plans which are offered by local dental practices. More than 35 plans for dental membership are available through membersy’s Marketplace.
“Since 2015, we've been on a mission to help DSOs do three things: attract, service, and retain more patients through a modern, tech-enabled membership experience,” said Michael Shuman, chief revenue officer at membersy. “Membersy Marketplace advances these goals, serving as our first D2C consumer platform exclusively built for membersy DSO partners.”
The membersy Marketplace is intended to help those in the US without access to high quality, reasonably priced dental care. Potential members have increased and are expected to continue to increase as the number of patients without employer-provided dental insurance rise, as well as the number of patients who work as freelancers or in other non-traditional job formats. Adding to that trend, about half of Medicare patients do not have coverage for dental care.
“After the difficult healthcare experience brought on by the pandemic with both uncertainty for their own health and economic challenges to accessing much needed care, millions of American consumers deserve a better path to gain the care they need, starting with their dentist,” shares Sean Hurley, chief growth advisor to membersy. “The entire team at membersy is dedicated to helping people access the dental care they need by digitally connecting them in a convenient way to the dentists who provide the dental care they need.”
