Insurtech Oscar partners with US benefits enrolment platform
New York-based Oscar Health, a technology-focused health insurance company, has partnered with online benefits enrolment platform for insurance brokers EaseCentral.
The partnership will allow California-based brokers to access Oscar healthcare plans within the EaseCentral system and to submit enrolments completed within EaseCentral directly to Oscar.
Earlier in August, Oscar secured $375 million funding from Google’s parent company Alphabet, and prior to that raised $165 million in a round led by venture capital firm Founders Fund to fuel its next phase of growth.
"Oscar and EaseCentral share a passion for serving brokers and small business clients with innovative products for health insurance,” said Michael Lujan, California market director at Oscar Health. “We look forward to our partnership and advancing the use of technology to deliver a better employee benefits experience."
David Reid, CEO and co-founder of EaseCentral, said: "EaseCentral is committed to providing the best benefits experience for brokers, employers, and employees. Oscar's innovative approach to insurance, paired with this simple enrolment experience for businesses makes the partnership a natural fit."
