Because CareCredit is the one plan that can do it all, you'll be providing your patients with several payment options. In turn, this increases their acceptance of recommended and elective treatment. By offering flexible, convenient payment plans, you'll allow your patients to start treatment immediately.

You can get started today by calling 800-300-3046 x4519, and soon you'll be receiving payment at time of treatment and increasing treatment volume. Or you can complete our online Participating Professional Agreement and a representative will contact you to complete your enrollment process.

CareCredit is a winning solution for you, your practice, and your patients!

Yes. We take care of the billing and collecting so valuable time can be better spent on other important responsibilities such as patient care and developing patient relationships. We provide the office staff with training, all the tools needed to present the program to your patients, and all the materials to quickly and efficiently process applications.

For over 16 years, healthcare providers have been offering CareCredit's innovative payment plans backed by GE Capital. In fact, more than 50,000 practices nationwide use CareCredit.

Within two business days, the treatment fees are electronically deposited into your practice's bank account, less a minimal processing fee.

CareCredit is a non-recourse program, so if your patients happen to default on payment, it's not your responsibility.

The patient completes a short application. Then, your office staff sends in the necessary information via phone, fax, or by using the online application to our credit center, which is open 7 days a week, 16 hours a day. Within minutes, or seconds if using the 23/7 online application, a line of credit is granted to qualified applicants. Your office staff can then process charges to the patient's account immediately. It's that simple.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA") became effective in April 2003 and protects private information that your patients share with you and any "Business Associate" of yours. You are not required to have a Business Associate contract with CareCredit because the patient financing program typically does not include the exchange of patient health related information. CareCredit does take steps to ensure that any information about your patients is protected and used only for the purposes of the CareCredit program.

More than 50,000 healthcare providers have made CareCredit their practice's payment plan. Their patients appreciate the proven benefits such as low, flexible monthly payments, no initial cash outlay, and no initial or annual account holder fees.

Major credit cards may be a limited payment option for more comprehensive treatment. According to a recent credit card industry survey, the average person has only $300 of credit available on their consumer credit cards. Visa and MasterCard may be limited payment options for treatment fees of several hundred dollars or more. With CareCredit, your patients have a separate line of credit that allows them to accept comprehensive treatment. Plus, they can schedule their procedures immediately.
