Using CareCredit

The CareCredit program:

• Enables a dental practice to offer financing options for healthcare expenses to its patients

• Establishes a revolving credit line that can be used for future treatment without the need to reapply

• Requires the practice to pay a processing fee for CareCredit transactions

A key benefit of CareCredit:A practice receives a direct electronic transfer of the treatment fee into its bank account within two business days, with no recourse if the patient delays payment or defaults. For more information, see the CareCredit documentation and website.

When this feature is activated:

• CareCredit is launched from the software.

• The required patient and account information is sent to CareCredit.

• CareCredit uses the information to process the request.

Contact CareCredit for assistance with using the CareCredit program.

Note: A CareCredit icon displayed in color in the upper-right of the Patient window indicates that the patient is a CareCredit customer; an icon displayed in B&W indicates that the patient is not a CareCredit customer.

• Even if your office is currently offering CareCredit, you must perform several configuration steps to use the new integration. See Setting Up CareCredit for more information.
