Medical procedure financing helps patients get the surgical procedures they need today without waiting. Health insurance companies do not cover many medical procedures, such as cosmetic surgery, LASIK surgery, breast augmentation, and other “elective” procedures.
However, you don’t need to let that stop you from enjoying perfect vision or a more youthful look. With a medical loan, you can pay for a procedure without going into credit card debt or relying on your medical providers’ financing options.
You can do this through something known as “medical procedure financing.” Read on to learn more.
Medical financing is the process of securing a personal loan to cover medical-related expenses. People use medical procedure financing to pay for both planned and unplanned medical treatments.
Patients also rely on financing to cover related medical expenses, such as prescriptions, copayments, deductibles, and even medical debt consolidation.
United Credit has an extensive network of lenders that allows us to help patients from all financial backgrounds. Whether you have a less-than-perfect credit score or excellent credit, United Credit can help you pair with a lender and take out a loan with affordable monthly payments. Our years of experience let us offer medical financing solutions for patients with subprime credit, and we can help you apply with a co-signer so you can get the best rates on your medical loan.
If you need a medical procedure, you have options on how you finance it. Medical procedure financing is an excellent way to get the surgery you need right away.
Many benefits exist, including:
Fast Funding
With medical procedure financing, you can often receive funding far faster than you would otherwise. For example, you won’t need to wait until you’ve saved enough money to cover the procedure on your own. You also won’t need to wait for your health insurance provider to determine if a procedure is covered.
Variety of Loan Terms
We work with a diverse lending partner network, and you may qualify for loans from various lenders. As a result, you’ll have the power to choose between different repayment terms and interest rates, so you can find the loan that suits you best. Plus, you may qualify for better terms or interest rates depending on your credit score, among other factors.
Cheaper Than a Credit Card
Using a credit card to pay for medical procedures can get expensive quickly. Credit cards commonly have high interest rates, potentially leaving you on the hook for far more than your initial procedure cost. Interest rates and fees can also make it difficult to pay off the deficit, which can cause your debt to snowball out of control.
Poor Credit Doesn’t Necessarily Bar You from Financing
Securing a loan can be a challenge if you have poor credit. Fortunately, United Credit works with a diverse group of lenders to make it easier for consumers to potentially qualify for medical procedure financing. You can also apply for financing with a co-signer, which may improve your approval odds. Once you’ve reviewed all of your financing options, you’ll be able to choose the loan term that works best for you.
Every lender has its own credit score requirements and underwriting practices, which take many factors into consideration in addition to FICO. You can get your credit score from any major credit bureau, although your score may vary from credit bureau to credit bureau. This is because each bureau uses its own rating scale.
You can request your report from the major credit bureaus and compare their profile with your credit history. It’s a good idea to dispute any incorrect items in your history before using United Credit’s online application to apply for patient financing.
United Credit can help match patients with medical loans for surgical procedures. While an excellent credit score provides more options when it comes to loan amounts and loan terms, patients of all credit backgrounds can qualify for a medical loan for procedures.
A medical loan can pay for procedures that health insurance companies do not cover, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or other fertility treatments, LASIK eye surgery, weight loss surgery, and plastic surgery, as well as associated medical costs.
A medical loan can help patients receive the treatments they need today without waiting. Medical loans can have a lower interest rate than medical credit cards, which often have a grace period for repayment, but then the interest rate can skyrocket.

There are a few ways that a tummy tuck – also known as an abdominoplasty – can be covered through health insurance. However, they are not common. For health insurance to cover a tummy tuck, the patient would have to be suffering from a hernia or another relevant medical condition. Most tummy tuck procedures are considered cosmetic procedures and are paid for out of pocket by the patient. Patients can pay for a tummy tuck with a medical loan from United Medical Credit’s network of lenders.
A full-body lift costs $30,000 on average. It is an extensive process that can include both a lower body lift and upper body lift, sculpting the arms, thighs, back, breasts, buttocks, hips, abdomen, face and neck. Often two surgeons will work on the same patient at once, to cut down on the time the patient spends under anesthesia. A full-body lift requires 2-3 weeks off of work and is unlikely to be fully covered by health insurance. Many patients choose medical loans from United Medical Credit’s network of lenders for their plastic surgery procedures. This allows them to pay upfront for a full-body lift and start enjoying the benefits to their quality of life much sooner.
