Depending on who is asking, it usually means one of three different things: * **Add a clinician or team member to a practice** (practice-admin action). * **Update the insurance provider or payer on a client's insurance** (client action). * **Connect a client to a therapist in Thrizer** (invitation-based). Use this article to send the question to the right path. ## Are you a practice administrator adding a clinician or team member? Use **Clinician Portal → Team → Add Team Member** to invite a new clinician or staff member to your practice. See [Team members](/help/clinician/team-members) for the invitation flow, role definitions, and how team members interact with the Thrizer Widget. ## Are you a client updating your insurance provider or payer? Go to **Client Portal → Settings → Insurance plan** to add, edit, or replace your insurance information (including the insurance company / payer). See [Linking or editing insurance](/help/client/link-insurance). ## Are you a client trying to add or connect to a new therapist? In Thrizer, clinician–client connections are invitation-based. Clients generally do not add clinicians from their own portal. Instead: 1. Ask the clinician to send you a Thrizer invitation (or a Thrizer Widget / benefit check link from their practice). 2. When the clinician invites you, a pending connection appears under **Client Portal → Clinicians**. 3. Select **Accept** on that row to connect. See [Clinician connections](/help/client/clinician-connections). You can also submit an out-of-network claim through Thrizer for a provider who is **not** a Thrizer clinician by uploading a superbill from **Client Portal → Claims → Upload Superbill**. Client-side superbill upload is available until August 9, 2026. **Add Claim** (manual claim entry) has been removed from the client portal. See [Claims and superbill uploads](/help/client/claims-and-superbills). ## If you're still not sure If the term "provider" is not clear in context, ask which of the three scenarios above applies before selecting a path. If it's still unclear, contact [help@thrizer.com](mailto:help@thrizer.com) with a short description of what you're trying to do. ## Related articles Practice administrators — invite and manage clinicians and staff.
