Kleer Takes a Bite Out of Insurance with Newly Launched In-House Dental Platform

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Weekly News -- Kleer announced the pilot launch of their in-house dental platform. The three month pilot is invitation-only with dentists participating from around the country. Kleer's innovative business model, which eliminates the insurance middleman and connects dentists directly with patients, is already garnering a lot of attention from the dental industry.

The mission of Kleer is simple: increase the value of dental practices while making dental care plans affordable and accessible to everyone. Kleer's platform enables dentists to create their own customized membership plans and offer affordable, comprehensive dental coverage directly to their patients.

"We've conducted extensive market research and testing. One of our major findings was that 50 percent of US consumers do not visit a dentist each year primarily due to cost, fear of cost, and lack of dental coverage. They have looked at dental insurance, but stay away due to high costs, complexity, and treatment limitations," said Dave Monahan, CEO of Kleer. "They are looking for a simple, affordable, and comprehensive dental care plan, but don't believe it exists."

With Kleer dentists can regain the trust of patients, using the platform to transform their practice in less than 15 minutes. The platform is simple and free to implement, easy to use, patient friendly, and HIPAA compliant. Dentists can select from five care plan templates, create their own fee schedule, and set their own subscription price. It's that simple. And best of all, dentists keep about 90 percent of all payments made by a patient. Kleer also partners with dentists to help manage and market their membership plans, while providing support to their staff and patients.

Once dentists set up their plan, patients can use Kleer's mobile app or website to purchase the membership plan in five minutes or less. And benefits start immediately. There are no waiting periods, no deductibles, no annual maximums, no treatment limitations, and no pre-approvals. Just great care at an affordable price!

"Our research also taught us that due to plan complexity, treatment limitations, pre-approvals, and rejected claims, dentists spend a lot of time and money managing insurance plans. To make matters worse, insurers can eat up 40 to 50 percent of patient payments," continued Monahan. "In our focus groups, I heard repeatedly that growing a profitable practice based on insurance has become very difficult, if not impossible. So we worked with dentists and uninsured patients to design Kleer. We made Kleer very easy for dentists to implement and manage while building in the preventive and major treatment care patients are looking for. We also eliminated the cost and hassle of the middleman so patients can afford dental care, and dentists can grow their practices profitably."
