Owning a healthcare business or practice can be very profitable and very challenging at the same time. Having to wait up to 90 days to get paid by insurance companies, HMOs and Medicare/Medicaid can wreak havoc on your company's cash flow. This problem can easily be compounded if you have regular periodic expenses, such as rent and payroll, which must be met.
Going to the bank may be of some help, especially if you are a doctor, are willing to personally guarantee a loan and own a medical office. If you run any other type of healthcare business that bills insurance or Medicare you may be out of luck. Banks almost always require significant collateral and three years of audited financials. To make things more complicated, most bank financing has maximum limits. Much like a credit card maximum, once you reach it, that is the end of the line. But what if your business is growing?
Medical factoring allows you to finance your business by using your slow paying insurance claims as collateral. In effect it reduces the time it takes you to get paid from up to 90 days down to a few days. You can use the financing to pay rent, meet payroll and pay suppliers. You can also use it to grow your business.
As opposed to other financing tools,
factoring has no arbitrary maximum limits. Your maximum amount of financing is solely determined by how much you invoice. The more you invoice, the more you can finance. Factoring enables you to grow your business and eliminates having to wait to get paid by insurance companies and by Medicare/Medicaid.
Medical factoring is easy to qualify for. It works equally well for new and for established healthcare companies. If you cannot afford to wait up to 90 days to get paid by your insurance carriers, you must consider factoring as a solution.
