Dental practices that introduce patients to treatment-finance providers, or help arrange finance for private treatment, may be carrying on regulated credit-broking activity.
Whether authorisation is required depends on the practice’s activities, patient journey and the role of finance in the treatment discussion.
Treatment planning and payment options often happen in the same appointment, so the boundary must be documented.
Patients may be anxious or in pain, which raises clear vulnerable-customer considerations for your practice.
Coordinators and reception teams discussing payment plans are part of the regulated journey and need training.
