Medical & Dental Practice Financing

Financing built around insurance reimbursement cycles

Healthcare practices carry strong, predictable revenue but face long reimbursement cycles and expensive equipment. Loanwise Solutions connects providers with lenders that recognize professional credentials and payer mix as underwriting strengths.

Cash flow challenges we see

  • Insurance receivables age 45 to 120 days
  • Imaging, chairs, and operatory equipment require six-figure outlays
  • Buying into or acquiring a practice takes capital before day one
  • Student loan balances distort personal debt ratios

What owners use financing for

  • Acquire a retiring dentist's practice with up to 90% financing
  • Finance CBCT, laser, or imaging equipment over its useful life
  • Build out a second location or expand operatories
  • Purchase the building your practice occupies

Medical & Dental financing: frequently asked questions

Can I finance a practice acquisition with little money down?

Often yes. SBA 7(a) practice acquisition loans commonly go to 90% of the purchase price, and a seller note can cover part of the remaining equity, leaving a modest cash injection.

Do student loans disqualify me?

No. Healthcare lenders are used to seeing large education balances and weigh practice cash flow and specialty income data more heavily than a raw debt-to-income ratio.

Can a brand-new practice get funding?

Yes. De novo practice programs exist for licensed providers and typically fund build-out, equipment, and several months of working capital in one package.
