Skin diseases affect 84.5 million Americans and cost the U.S. healthcare system $75 billion annually in medical, preventive, and drug costs.* While dermatological conditions are widely experienced, the responses to treat them vary.
1 in 5 will develop skin cancer in their lifetime.^
Melanoma has a 99% five-year survival rate when caught early.^
Nearly 80% would have deferred some or all care if they didn't have Paytient.**
One in four Americans will likely experience a skin concern in their lifetime, but only around one-third of them will seek medical attention.*
A primary reason that many avoid seeking care is the uncertainty of the cost and whether they’ll be able to afford it. A 2025 survey revealed that 38% of American adults have postponed or skipped care or medication due to cost.^^
Paytient offers a modern solution to eliminate this barrier: The ability for members to pay for care on their own terms.
From routine prevention to urgent procedures, members can use Paytient to manage***:
Skin cancer screenings and biopsies
Treatment for chronic conditions like eczema and psoriasis
Prescription and non-prescription treatments (Available for plans with pharmacy enabled)
Removal of moles, cysts, and other lesions
Paytient makes dermatologic care more accessible by giving employees a line of credit to use for out-of-pocket care costs — interest free.^^^ No added stress — just healthy skin and the ability to pay over time.
