The first ten years
The Dental, Vision, Prescription and Chiropractic Plan has had an impressive run since its inception. The Plan now covers more than 1 million lives. It saves members up to 80% on Dental Services, 60% on Vision Services, 50% on generic and 25% on brand name prescriptions and 50% on Chiropractic Services. And it contains the only national discount eyewear plan endorsed by the Opticians Association of America.
AmeriPlan® has developed a growing Dental provider base of more than 30,000 providers. In addition, more than 12,000 optical providers, 50,000 retail pharmacies and 7,000 chiropractors contract with AmeriPlan. AmeriPlan represents a great opportunity for providers to build profitability throught customers who pay directly at the time of service.
A Growing Future
Today, there are more than 43 million Americans who do not have health insurance. That number continues to rise as healthcare costs increase and employers cannot afford to offer benefits to employees.
In recognition of this growing problem, AmeriPlan® was searching for a way to meet the needs of uninsured and underinsured healthcare consumers. In 2003, AmeriPlan® decided to examine the problem.
They have created a Consumer Driven Health Plan, called AmeriPlan HeathTM. This discount Physicians and Hospitals medical program will serve the growing population of uninsured and underinsured Americans.
