“I started this practice nearly a year ago. Since then, I have grown to seven therapists. I would say a lot of this is due to Thrizer, making therapy more affordable for people in our community. The year before, I barely had 10 clients the entire year. We’ve had approximately 10 times the growth of that.”
Anna Sasser-Christian, an LCSW and practice founder in the East Bay Area, was having trouble filling her caseload with families who could afford her services.
“Many families are not able to afford a full fee for private pay therapy,” Anna said. They needed to use their out-of-network benefits in this case as Anna did not accept insurance.
However, she “found it difficult to help families leverage their out-of-network benefits.” Adding to the challenge, Anna said “The fees charged to families with other out-of-network billing companies are extremely high.”
Anna needed help with out-of-network insurance billing so she could fill her caseload and help families afford therapy.
Anna decided to get help with her out-of-network insurance billing from Thrizer.
Working with Thrizer allowed Anna to increase affordability for her family therapy clients.
Anna said, “Our group practice has been using Thrizer for a year. Over half our clients are enrolled with Thrizer and are able to leverage their expensive health insurance benefits!”
Anna also had experience with Mentaya, another insurance billing software. She found Thrizer’s pricing to be much more favorable for her clients. Here’s what Anna said about her experience.
“I used Thrizer and Mentaya at the same time. I found Thrizer to be more personable, easy to navigate, and fair for clients. I did not end up moving forward with Mentaya due to the fee they charge clients.”
Another aspect of Thrizer that Anna loved was the automatic superbill submission and claim tracking software.
“The automatic superbill submission and claim tracking is extremely helpful” Anna added.
One of the biggest reasons Anna chose Thrizer is because of its reliable customer service.
Anna commented, “I chose Thrizer because they have excellent customer service. I love our support person. He fixes everything!”
The results speak for themselves:
Most importantly, Thrizer helped Anna and her team help more families. As she said, “If I was not able to use Thrizer, then many families would not have been able to receive therapy services.”
When asked if she would recommend Thrizer to her peers, she said she already has.
“I’ve recommended lots of people. I tell them it makes therapy more equitable for our community.”
