Dental Patient Financing

Online Dental Financing Software

Quality Dental care can be expensive, and a lot of patients may struggle to afford necessary treatments without accessible financing options. According to the American Dental Association (ADA), 59% of adults cited cost as a reason for delaying their dental care in 2022. Additionally, the National Association of Dental Plans (NADP) reports that around 74 million Americans do not have dental insurance, resulting in many of them postponing or forgoing dental care. Patient financing helps bridge this gap by providing a manageable way to pay for treatments.

Providing timely and useful financing options will also improve the case acceptance rate of patients who are already in the dental office. In general, practices offering patient financing see a 15-30% increase in treatment acceptance rates. Furthermore, with financing, there is a higher probability that patients may accept comprehensive treatment plans rather than opting for minimal care. This can obviously lead to better long-term outcomes for patients and higher revenue for practices.

Advanced Patient Financing Integration Features

Improved Cash Flow and Revenue

  • Higher Case Acceptance Rates

    Financing helps patients afford necessary treatments, resulting in higher case acceptance rates. With reduced upfront costs, patients are more likely to proceed with recommended procedures.

  • Comprehensive Care

    With available financing, patients generally choose more comprehensive treatment plans rather than just taking the least expensive option.

  • Immediate Payment

    Patient financing programs like Sunbit have options to pay the dental office upfront, even though the patient pays over time. This ensures steady cash flow for the practice.

Patient Retention and Growth

  • Higher Patient Loyalty

    Offering financing options can improve patient satisfaction, as it shows the practice’s commitment to making care affordable for patients. Satisfied patients are more likely to return for future services and refer more patients to the practice.

  • Reduced Financial Stress for Patients

    Financing reduces the financial burden on patients by spreading the cost of treatment over time, resulting in a more positive experience.

  • Competitive Advantage

    Practices that provide flexible payment options will attract patients who might otherwise choose a lower quality of care at another practice. Also, financing options can make dental care accessible to a broader demographic, including more uninsured and underinsured patients.

Reduction in Aging and Bad Debt

  • Lower Risk of Non-Payment

    With patient financing using Sunbit, the practice often receives payment upfront from Sunbit, reducing the risk of non-payment or bad debt.

  • Simplified Billing and Collections

    Financing simplifies the billing process, reducing the need for following up on unpaid invoices, thus reducing the time and effort on collections.

  • Multiple Payment Options

    Financing provides patients with various payment options, such as no-interest or low-interest plans. This allows them to choose a plan that fits their budget.
