STONY BROOK, N.Y., Oct. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Friday Health Plans (Friday), a health insurance company focused on Affordable Care Act (ACA) plans for individuals and families, has partnered with W3LL, a private exchange direct enrollment platform, to power online health plan sales for broker and consumers. The streamlined broker and consumer experience through W3LL will be live for the 2022 open enrollment period for ACA health plans this fall.
Friday achieved robust membership growth of more than 400% in 2021, and currently serves more than 80,000 members in Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Texas. Expansion plans for 2022 include markets in Georgia, North Carolina, Oklahoma and additional counties in Colorado and Texas.
"With our rapid rate of growth and more people qualifying for federal subsidies for health insurance, we need an online shopping platform that makes shopping easy and could scale with us," said Mike Gordon, Friday Health Plans' Chief Innovation Officer. "W3LL's technology, its broker platform, and its connection to the health insurance marketplace makes them a great partner."
How W3LL Supports Friday's Pursuit of Their Goals
W3LL works with health plans of all sizes to ensure that members have a seamless shopping experience that keeps them coming back while supporting broker functionality. An easy-to-navigate user interface with decision support tools ensures that members are matched with health plans that meet their needs.
W3LL is one of the few CMS-approved EDE phase three entities in the country. EDE beneficiaries can enroll directly in plans online effortlessly by eliminating the redirect to the Federally Facilitated Marketplace website. Members stay on the Friday branded site, preventing potential member drop-offs.
"W3LL's technology is built with the customer in mind, and through this technology we have significantly reduced the friction in the shopping experience, resulting in an increased sell-through rate and renewal rate for our partners," said Sarah Pew, W3LL's General Manager and Senior Vice President. "Friday Health Plans has found a unique approach that works for the ACA Marketplace, and partnering with W3LL, will facilitate their aggressive growth goals."
