Healthcare expenses are rising rapidly, and consumers are already spending $980 billion on healthcare each year. Real estate brokers, agents and gig economy workers are disproportionately affected by these costs, as the majority do not receive healthcare coverage through an employer plan and most are responsible for their entire premium. Bend is helping to close this seismic gap in coverage by providing next-generation health savings account offerings to real estate owners, operators and contractors.
“Our Passport Program is designed to grow the companies that we believe are advancing 100+ year old industries,” said Constance Freedman of Moderne Ventures. “We selected Bend because of its undeniable value to the real estate industry and the millions of contractors that have historically lacked employee benefit offerings like health savings accounts.”
