In July, Dr. Jonathan Kaplan, Founder/CEO of BuildMyBod Health took part in a Shark Tank style pitch event. As their prize, BuildMyBod won a marketing package in an upcoming issue of THE Aesthetic Guide. What does BuildMyBod do, you ask? Even if you didn’t ask, here’s the gist.
BuildMyBod Health: A primer
BuildMyBod Health allows consumers to check pricing on healthcare services that are typically paid out of pocket. They are paid out of pocket because 1) you haven’t met your deductible for a medically necessary service (think colonoscopy, lab test or X-ray) or 2) because the procedure is considered cosmetic and insurance doesn’t cover it anyway. Consumers interested in pricing can visit BuildMyBod.com or download the BuildMyBod iPhone app. Even more user friendly, consumers can utilize the BuildMyBod Price Estimator on a doctor’s website.
Regardless of how you find the doctor, you add procedures or services of interest to your “wishlist.” Then submit your wishlist along with your contact info. After that, you’ll instantly get an email with a breakdown of the costs and the doctor’s contact info. The doctor’s office will also receive your contact info for follow up. Better yet, they can help you navigate through the healthcare process. Including seeing if your insurance will cover the service.
