Many patients pay for physician care directly, without insurance, and need a clear, predictable way to pay at the time of service. DRODE connects you with patients who hold prefunded wallets and are ready to pay.

You collect only 50–70% of patient balances

Why

Why Benchmark

Benchmark to Medicare?

to Medicare?

For self-pay patients, DRODE uses a standardized, published benchmark (a multiple of the Medicare fee schedule) so that rates are transparent and consistent across the network. Because self-pay payments through DRODE settle instantly and in full, with no claim to file and no balance to chase, the administrative effort tied to collecting that payment is lower than for a typical self-pay balance.

It’s math, not magic. DRODE is designed to reduce the 30% administrative overhead that insurance creates. No claims, no clearinghouses, no denial management. 2x Medicare is competitive with most commercial reimbursement but it arrives instantly, with zero paperwork.

DRODE doesn’t replace your insured patients. It adds a self-pay channel and a way for your insured patients to pay their out-of-pocket portion.

Patients who currently pay out of pocket for physician services

Your insured patients, who can use DRODE for copays, coinsurance, and non-covered services

DRODE wallet holders, who can find you in the directory

Note: DRODE's self-pay rates apply to patients not billing insurance. When insurance is involved, contractual insurance rates apply.
