A Healthcare Initiative by Mark Cuban

No middlemen.
No secret contracts.
Huge healthcare savings.

Cost Plus Wellness connects self-funded employers directly with healthcare providers through transparent, published contracts with upfront pricing. No intermediaries, no hidden fees.

For Employers

Reduce spend. Gain transparency.

Reduced Costs

Published contract rates mean you know exactly what you'll pay. No spread pricing, no shared "savings" fees, no hidden administrative fees.

Full Transparency

Our contracts enable a straight-forward healthcare transaction. No balance billing, no opaque incentive payments, no steering prohibitions.

Healthier employees

Employees spend less time arguing with intermediaries and delaying care due to complexity.

For Providers

Practice medicine, not insurance.

No Patient Collections

Employers pay 100% of the negotiated rate for each claim. You focus on patient care, not chasing down payments.

No prior authorization

Employers trust providers to deliver appropriate, medically necessary care without unnecessary delays.

Fast Payments

Employers and TPAs are required to pay within 30 days of receipt of claim.

Mark Cuban
“We started Cost Plus Wellness because you are overpaying for healthcare. The biggest insurance companies have intentionally made this industry opaque. In fact, every single contract has a confidentiality clause. The number one rule of healthcare contracts is that you can't talk about healthcare contracts. Until now.”

— Mark Cuban

How is Cost Plus Wellness different from Cost Plus Drugs?

Both Cost Plus Drugs and Cost Plus Wellness are Mark Cuban-backed projects designed to lower the cost of healthcare in America. Cost Plus Drugs is a pharmacy with transparent prices for prescription drugs. Cost Plus Wellness helps employers contract directly and transparently with healthcare providers.

How does Cost Plus Wellness make money?

Today, Cost Plus Wellness is an open-source project, not a business. We may at some point charge employers for our services, but right now our focus is simply to bring transparency to the market.

How does Cost Plus Wellness work for self-insured companies?

Cost Plus Wellness is designed for companies that have a self-funded health plan.

What's the catch?

To keep Cost Plus Wellness administratively simple for ourselves and providers, our contracts require employers to pay for care on cash-like terms.
