Our Healthcare Merchant Services specialize in deploying and providing you the PASSPORT to the lowest dentists, medical doctors, chiropractors, veterinariancost merchant services for medical doctors, dentists, labs and vision centers.  Starting a new medical practice is a huge challenge, so we are keeping it simple, low cost and quick for you.  In your private office, no pressure, you can analyze your benefits and apply online.

Discount rates are usually quoted with only the qualified rate by most processors. However, a educated merchant (which we want you to be), including most large merchant knows that the least expensive option is Interchange Plus pricing (read more..), at times known as the wholesale variable rate.  You can rest be assured that you will always receive the lowest rates regardless of when VISA/MC changes their nation-wide Interchange rates, so you can pass the savings to your patients.

Our terminals are also setup to accept Healthcare Provider cards if you are a Health Care / Patient Care provider as reported to the IRS or SIGIS IIAS approved. These cards are better known as Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) and Heath Saving Accounts (HSA) that automatically processes the claims for the patient to simplify the transaction for both physician and patient.  Per IRS regulations, there are several types of Health Care providers that are not required to have an IIAS system or 90% rule exemption. This includes doctor’s offices, hospitals, dentists, medical labs, vision centers and others because the services you offer are strictly health care related.
