Option 1 - Pre-deductible superbill uploads

You pay the full session fee, Thrizer submits the superbill for you to insurance and creates the claim which helps work towards your out of network deductible. 🫱🏼‍🫲🏻 No additional cost or paperwork required from you.

Option 2 - Out of network pay

You pay the full session fee but once your out of network deductible is met, Thrizer will create and submit the claim to your insurance on your behalf. You wait to get reimbursed based on your out of network benefits.

🫱🏼‍🫲🏻 No paperwork required from you, Thrizer keeps 1% of session cost

Option 3 - Thrizer Pay

Your deductible is met! You only pay your estimated copay or coinsurance (depending on your plan), Thrizer covers the rest of the session cost.
