Healthier choices. Healthier system.
Paytient is the platform that gives people the power to say “yes” to care—without fear or delay. Because systemic change starts in small moments.
The ability to pay is the ability to choose. Paytient removes out-of-pocket costs as a barrier, freeing members to opt for early care, fill prescriptions, and stay healthier. Providers are paid in full. Employers and plans control costs. Choice transforms the system for all who receive care or make it possible.
Every tap of the Paytient app, each employer, plan, and individual that join—all unleash a ripple effect of healthier outcomes and lower costs. Together, we’re proving that better care is not only needed and deserved, but within reach.
Values
Live the mission
We are missionaries, not mercenaries, shaped by an unshakable belief in the Better Care Economy, and brighter future, that we’re building together. Our leadership looks like tenacity, flexibility, and unrelenting optimism despite the inevitable challenges we face along the way.
Lift others
Our team is fearlessly selfless. We succeed by elevating our customers and our teammates, firm in the belief that we are the most ourselves when we are self-forgetful. We welcome feedback, value diverse perspectives, and work collaboratively, with a shared sense of urgency rooted in empathy for others.
Light the way
Our people stand out, bring clarity, and blaze paths for others to follow. We work smarter (and rest well) so that we can shine a light on opportunities to improve the U.S. healthcare system—today and into the future. Shining a light requires craft, diligence, and charm.
Where we’ve been
Where we’re going
Where we’ve been
For two decades, Brian Whorley worked in his local hospital, caring for his community. He loved the mission, but saw patients carrying more and more of the cost. Paying for care was becoming as painful as illness itself.
That’s why, in 2018, Brian and Daniel Lynn launched Paytient, with a goal to provide access to care without financial harm. Their bootstrapped dream is now essential healthcare infrastructure —and a force for change.
Where we’re going
We’re building the Better Care Economy by changing how Americans make healthcare decisions.
As Paytient scales, more people choose early care. Costs fall as delayed care, bad debt, and expensive downstream treatment decrease. The future is bright, and for millions of members, it’s already here.
Growing recognition
Our executive team
Remote with roots
CoMo
Paytient’s heart and headquarters are in Columbia, Missouri. Teammates work primarily from wherever they thrive, and we gather regularly to connect, collaborate, and advance our mission.
Columbia, or “CoMO” as the locals say, is one of the most vibrant cities in Missouri and the Midwest, with 40% growth since 2000—for good reason. With renowned schools and colleges, CoMo has an educated population powering leadership in healthcare, insurance, and technology.
But the real beauty of CoMo is in its balance: low cost of living with lots of career opportunities, outdoor adventure alongside a wildly creative arts scene, and a fresh farmer’s market steps from pizza so good, even New Yorkers approve.
