The model

## What is a dental membership plan?

A dental membership plan is a subscription-based model that allows patients to access preventive care and receive savings on other treatments at your office for a recurring monthly or annual fee.

Patients get simple, predictable care. Your practice gets loyal patients and recurring revenue that does not depend on insurance.

How Clerri works with you

## Attract patients, build loyalty, and grow predictable revenue.

While many practices manage membership plans on their own, we focus exclusively on the hardest part: consistent execution via software and automation that reduce administrative work and make it easier for your team to enroll and support members.

Questions

## Open Dental integration FAQs

What does "authorized" mean for the Open Dental integration?

It means Open Dental sanctions the connection. Clerri is an authorized Open Dental integration partner, so the integration is built and maintained with Open Dental's blessing rather than as a workaround, and data syncs between the two systems in under a second.

What does the front desk actually see?

Clerri Bridge surfaces patients who are a fit for membership right in the Open Dental schedule view. Your team can show a patient their savings by procedure, enroll them in about 30 seconds with details pulled from Open Dental, and let billing and renewals run automatically.

Does our data end up living in two places?

No. Open Dental stays the source of truth. Clerri reads patient details from it and writes membership activity, payments, and balances back automatically, so your team never maintains the same record twice.

How fast does data move between Open Dental and Clerri?

In under a second. A patient added or a schedule change made in Open Dental shows up in Clerri in real time, and membership payments and balances post back just as quickly, so both systems always agree.

How long does it take to go live?

For most practices, about two weeks. It is a light, guided setup managed by the Clerri growth team, not a system conversion.
