I've never seen an employee clap at the end of a benefits fair ... until a couple of weeks ago.
Helps me out a lot. My lil dog is getting old and has to be on meds for the rest of his life...so it's just one thing I don't have to worry about.
This is a great benefit for someone behind on medical bills to have a plan to get caught up!
This is exciting! I can use this for veterinary services! I may be able to afford helping treat my dog's illnesses instead of having to put him down because I can't afford treatment.
I'm so excited about this! I've always wanted to carry insurance on my darn dogs but this helps with the $400 bills that have to be paid in full at the time of visit!!

Frequency Asked Questions
How does Paytient work with an HSA?
If you're one of the 20 million Americans with an HSA, thank your employer for giving you access to the best investment account possible. Just 3% of HSA holders fully utilize its triple tax advantage and invest their savings.
Paired with an HSA, Paytient is an HSA accumulation tool. Use Paytient to pay your eligible out-of-pocket expenses to build up and invest your HSA dollars for a catastrophic medical event, or hopefully an additional source of tax-free retirement savings.
How does Paytient work with FSA?
There are 34 million Flexible Spending Accounts in the US. Even if your employer offers the 3 additional months at year end, there's no changing the fact that these dollars are still use-it-or-lose-it, and as such, most folks under-fund their FSA. The average total contribution is about $450, while most folks with out-of-pocket expenses spend about $750+ per year.
If you have FSA dollars, use them and then pay the rest with Paytient over time, at no cost to you.
What happens if an employee quits with a balance?
The employee has two options to payoff their balance - they voluntarily elect to withhold the balance from their last pay check, or they decide how they'd like to pay it off from their bank.
We have found that the cohort of employees using Paytient are 30-40% less likely to resign than employees at the same employer not using Paytient.
Every employer has a different historical employee turnover rate. When desigining Paytient for your organization's needs, we work with you to craft the right way to manage the risk of employee non-payment due to separation.
How does Paytient help my business?
Hard Economic Savings: we help increase employee adoption of high, and higher deductible health plans without their harmful effects of delaying treatment due to financial anxiety. For every employee that switches from a low to high deductible, we save the employer about 15x our cost. Using Paytient increases your bottom line.
Soft Economic Impact: 30-40% less turnover. Improved recruitment. Less financial anxiety due to unplanned expenses relating to medical, dental, vision, or veterinary issues. A less distracted employee is a more productive employee. Reduction of costly and hasselsome 401k and 403b loans. A more financially healthy workforce.
What is Paytient's vision?
Healthcare will follow retirement. In the 50s, 60s, and 70s the unquestioned status quo was your employer fully paid your retirement. In 1978, the 401k upended this direct benefit and now most folks directly contribute to their own retirement with everyone paying into a backstopping public option (i.e. Social Security).
Today, employer sponsored healthcare is largely a defined benefit. We believe the future is more akin to retirement where 1) most employers make or match contributions to employee HSAs, 2) those savings build up in your early, healthy years of a career, and 3) all of this is backstopped by truly affordable catastrophic coverage.
In that future, most routine, sub-catastrophic health care encounters will be purchased or financed in an effective cash market, and insurance will be for its intended use: the unpredictable and unaffordable.
