As we all know, 2009 has not been a stellar year in regards to our country's economy. Some states have experienced job losses in the double digits and the stock market is still very much on shaky ground. We are hearing more often about patients delaying dental treatments due to the current economic climate that hovers over us all. CareCredit has been hearing this as well and has developed a plan to assist patients with receiving the dental care they need.
CareCredit, the preferred provider of patient financing systems for the SCDA, is now offering a
no interest payment plan of 24 months for treatment fees of $2,500 and above. This will be an additional option you can offer along with their 3, 6, 12, and 18 month no interest plans currently in place. Perhaps 2 years of no interest payments will ease your patients concerns about accepting the treatments they need now instead of further prolonging them.
If you practice presently works with CareCredit for patient financing, use terminal code 124 when processing transactions for the 24 month no interest payment plan. If you currently do not offer CareCredit to your patients, but would like to learn more about what they can do to assist with you patents accepting treatments, click
