An important study released yesterday by The Commonwealth Fund highlights the needs of the underinsured, now 23% of the population. We'd add one more recommendation to their list of ways to improve plan design— ?? Bundle or build in a patient-centered payment design feature to all plans. Many may not know that 60M Americans will have a flexible payment solution in their Medicare Part D, ACA, or employer-sponsored plan in 2025 that allows them to spread costs over time without the burden of interest or fees. This feature ensures that even when costs are unknown, plan members have Certainty of Affordability, aka confidence that whatever the cost, they will be able to design a payment plan that works for their budget. Proud to be working with forward thinking payers and employers like Dawn Beaudin of Hyatt and Angela Evans, CBP of Advantage Solutions who are bringing certainty of affordability through Paytient to their employees. Thank you The Commonwealth Fund for this important research, especially authors: Robyn Rapoport, Rob Manley, and Paula Armendariz of SSRS; and Anthony Shih, MD, MPH, Corinne Lewis, MSW, Arnav Shah, Chris Hollander, Paul Frame, Jennifer Wilson, Kristen Kolb, MPH, RN, Carson Richards, and Evan D. Gumas.

It’s no secret that patients and providers navigate challenging uncertainties around healthcare payments. Fortunately, empathetic plan sponsors are embracing solutions that increase both certainty and affordability. Our Founder and CEO,?Brian Whorley, featured in today’s?KFF Health News'?"Letters to the Editor," emphasizes how innovative solutions—like Paytient’s model and the recently launched Medicare Prescription Payment Plan—can transform the out-of-pocket experience. These approaches ensure providers are paid upfront while giving patients the flexibility to repay over time, creating a system that works better for everyone. In his letter, Brian explains that it's not just about paying for care—it’s about building a system that feels better for patients, reduces administrative burden for providers, and benefits health plans. It’s a smarter, more empathetic way forward for healthcare. You can?read Brian’s full letter here:?https://bit.ly/3OGZTbD?

This November, we’re proud to honor National Caregivers Month and recognize the incredible contributions 50 million+ Americans who provide care and medical assistance to loved ones. ?????? From aging parents to young children, and loved ones with disabilities to veterans and service members, caregivers are the backbone of so many families and communities. Caregiving is an act of love, but it can also take a significant emotional, physical, and financial toll. That’s why it’s crucial to support caregivers in meaningful ways—whether by listening to their stories, recognizing their efforts, or providing resources that lighten their load. At Paytient, we’re committed to helping families manage the financial strain of healthcare, giving caregivers one less thing to worry about. Our Health Payment Account (HPA) empowers caregivers to focus on what truly matters: the well-being of those they love, without the added stress of unaffordable medical bills. When members have access to a Paytient card, they're able to break up healthcare expenses for themselves and their families into interest-free, manageable installments. Let’s raise awareness and celebrate the resilience and dedication of caregivers everywhere. How are you supporting caregivers this month? ??? #NationalCaregiversMonth #CaregiverSupport #HealthcareAffordability
