Membership Retention Keys:
-
Make sure your member knows AmeriPlan® is a DISCOUNT PLAN – Not Insurance
- Encourage your Member to use the plan as soon as possible – a member who uses the plan then sees their membership as something that saves them money and not an expense.
- Let your member know to expect their membership kit in 7 to 10 business days and to call you or member services if it does not arrive in that timeframe. Also let them know their cards are on the back cover of booklet.
- Coach your member on how to use their DVPC membership card (sample):
- Dental = AmeriPlan® logo
- Vision = Coast-to-Coast
- Prescription Drug = MEDCO
- Chiropractor = CPA
- DVPC member services: 1-800-647-8421
- AmeriPlan Health® customer service: 1-866-977-2477
- Instruct member to call AmeriPlan Health® customer service before using AmeriPlan Health® or seeing a provider.
If your newly enrolled member has a dental or medical provider who does not accept AmeriPlan®, get the providers name, speciality, address and phone number and the same information on the patient. Send referral information to AmeriPlan® Provider Relations @ referral@ameriplanusa.com

Occasionally a member will cancel the plan, or their monthly billing will not go through. It is easier to keep a current member than it is to signup another. You can save a memership from being cancelled in some instances. Check your “personal activity” at www.ameriplan.net regularly and after the 3rd and 18th billing cycles. If you have members or IBOs in the I (inactive) or C (cancelled) columns you will want to call those members/IBOs back to try to re-instate them.
A satisfied member will stay on the books and just as important…become a source of referrals! Referrals are the easiest sales to make!
Success Tip: Use your membership immediately! It’s what we call being a “product of the product”. Then you can “give your testimony” instead of a “sales pitch“.
