Building toward a healthier future for everyone. After a decade working in hospital administration, founder Brian Whorley saw the same story play out again and again: patients with insurance who couldn't afford to use it.
So in 2018, Brian and co-founder Daniel Lynn created Paytient — a healthcare benefit that ensures people can actually get the care they need when they need it, without financial harm.
Here's the problem we solve: 40% of people (inclusive of all income levels) with employer-sponsored health insurance are avoiding care right now because they can't afford the out-of-pocket cost.
Their employer sees it too late – higher claims data, sick days, turnover, and far more expensive health crises that could have been prevented. Not for people who use Paytient - 80% of members tell us they got care they otherwise would have avoided or skipped without the app.
