The 1 Option Every Company That Sells Medical Equipment Should Offer

The medical field as a whole is always evolving, with new advances in treatment and technology being developed every day. To keep up with the curve and give your patients the best possible products and care, you need to offer the newest top-notch medical equipment. You also need to offer medical equipment financing to ensure your high-quality products are accessible to as many patients as possible.

Why Offer Medical Equipment Financing?

As a company that specializes in selling medical equipment, you know that changes in regulations, insurance policies, technology and the economy can all affect what equipment is in demand. The field itself is also shifting to support the needs of an aging population and new trends in diagnosis.

While it can be difficult to pinpoint which equipment will sell, you will be more likely to increase sales if you offer medical equipment finance options to your patients. Rather than not purchasing a new mobility scooter or portable oxygen concentrator (POC)  because patients are unable to cover the full purchase price upfront, they will be able to finance the needed equipment at more manageable, low monthly payments. Your patients then have access to CPAP machines, POCs, and other equipment that will help increase their independence and overall health and well-being while your business benefits from their patronage.

How Do You Offer Medical Equipment Financing?

Offering financing for medical equipment sales is just as simple as financing for other high-end products or professional services. If you partner with UCFS, you can follow these steps:

  • When a patient needs help paying for your product, complete a credit application online or apply over the phone.
  • Once the application is submitted, wait just a few minutes for the credit decision.
  • Upon approval, the sale can be concluded immediately by completing the sales financing contract.

After the sale is complete, you will receive a direct payment for your sale. The patient will then begin their repayment to UCFS. Financing is an easy, alternative payment method that can help DMEs sell medical equipment and improve patients’ quality of life.
