What you need before you launch
Your fee schedule
Every price decision comes from your real UCR fees. Have your hygiene codes, exam and x-ray fees handy — the builder prices tiers against them and shows the margin.
A count of your uninsured patients
This is your launch list. Most practices are surprised how large it is; those patients are the fastest yes because they are already paying cash.
Two or three tiers, not ten
A child plan, an adult plan, and a perio plan cover almost every practice. Complexity kills enrollment at the front desk.
A membership agreement you approve
Plain-language terms covering what is included, the discount, billing frequency, renewal and cancellation. Edit the template to whatever your attorney signs off on.
The five steps
Decide what is included
Preventive care is the anchor — usually two cleanings, exams and x-rays — plus a flat discount of 10–20% on everything else. Keep exclusions short and obvious.
Set a price that protects your margin
Price the included care near your cost of delivering it and earn on the treatment members accept. The builder flags a tier that loses money before you publish it.
Train the two sentences your team will say
One sentence at check-in for uninsured patients, one at treatment presentation. Enrollment lives or dies on whether the team asks.
Publish the enrollment page and start with your list
Share the link by text and email to your uninsured patients, put the QR code at the front desk, and enroll people during the visit rather than after it.
Watch MRR, renewals and member treatment revenue
Once the plan is live the job becomes renewals and treatment acceptance. Both are on one dashboard, so you can see the plan compounding month over month.

Starting a dental membership plan
- How do I start a dental membership plan?
- Choose the preventive services you will include, price two or three tiers against your own fee schedule, write a plain-language membership agreement, publish an enrollment page, and start with your uninsured patients. With BoomCloud most practices complete that in under an hour and enroll members the same week.
- How much should I charge for a dental membership plan?
- Adult plans commonly run $25–$45 per month or $300–$400 per year including two cleanings, exams and x-rays, with 10–20% off other treatment. The correct number depends on your fees and your cost to deliver hygiene, which the plan builder calculates for you.
- What should the plan include?
- Preventive care patients need anyway — cleanings, exams, x-rays, often fluoride for children — plus a percentage discount on restorative and elective treatment. Avoid including expensive procedures at no charge; that is how plans lose money.
- How do I get patients to sign up?
- Ask every uninsured patient at check-in and again at treatment presentation, and text your uninsured list a link. Practices that assign one person to own enrollment consistently out-enroll practices that leave it to whoever is free.
- What does it cost to run?
- BoomCloud is $197 or $397 per month plus $3.50 or $4.50 per active member. The member fee is designed to be built into patient membership dues so the plan funds secure billing, data protection, support, capacity, and member features as it scales. There is no percentage of production and no share of the treatment revenue your members produce.
