There are several advantages to offering payment options with monthly auto-debits rather than just a prepay discount:

  • Providing a seamless payment experience for patients
  • Making it easier for patients to afford regular payments
  • Reducing pressure on patients to make a single large payment
  • Increasing the likelihood of long-term patient retention
  • Avoiding potential refund issues with prepayments
  • Creating stable monthly revenue streams
  • Encouraging patients to commit to ongoing care
  • Establishing a familiar payment schedule for patients and practitioners
  • Aligning payment structures with the concept of ongoing memberships rather than one-time transactions
