PaySimple, the leading provider of SaaS (Software as a Service) on-demand electronic payment solutions for small businesses, played an instrumental role in Sunrise Dental’s ability to offer its patients affordable dental care. The popular dental practice, based in Geneva, Illinois, is known in the area for providing high quality dentistry for the entire family.

Sunrise Dental found that when patients put off dental care, it can lead to some disastrous dental experiences that could have been easily avoided by coming in and resolving issues early with minimal care. The dental practice accepts most forms of insurance and in 2007 it implemented a program to offer patients flexible payment options with as long as five years to pay off their bills. In order to facilitate this, Sunrise Dental used the services of a leading personal financing company within the dental space. While it enabled flexible payment options for the patients, the services cost the company 10% of the overall fees, equal to $40,000 per year.

Understanding the important service it was providing its customers, Sunrise Dental wanted to continue to offer payment plans, but in a way that would cost the practice less. After significant research, the company awarded the contract to PaySimple as the marketplace solution that would best meet its needs. The PaySimple Recurring Payment Module was implemented, allowing Sunrise Dental to create an automated, pre-determined schedule that would automatically charge patients a pre-determined amount using an ACH or credit card transaction. The system easily tracks all contracted accounts and allows the administrators to run an accounts receivable report each month.

“Our goal is to provide first-class, affordable dental care to all who need it,” said Paula Osmanski, Office Administrator for Sunrise Dental Care. “PaySimple was the only solution on the market that allowed us to save money and continue providing affordable care without compromising our quality of service.”

Now Sunrise Dental easily maintains its flexible payment options while being able to simplify its collection processes--all at a lower cost. In addition, the company has found that it has increased its in-patient ratio and allowed patients that would otherwise have been denied treatment, to be able to receive needed dental care, regardless of expense.

“Sunrise Dental is sincerely dedicated to the well being of its patients. Its selection of PaySimple underscores the company’s commitment to providing excellent care that is affordable to all patients, regardless of price,” said Eric Remer, CEO of PaySimple, Inc. “Our solutions are built to meet the needs of small businesses, giving them ability to provide the best service possible at the lowest cost.”
