Dental Intelligence is a leading patient relationship management and analytics platform used by over 9,000 dental practices. Through this collaborative initiative, providers can now offer CareCredit to patients more intuitively through simple automated payment communications. Functionalities including appointment reminders, confirmations, metrics and reporting, in addition to the platform’s core payment and application functions, will optimize how practices handle these details with patients.

“Practices have told us that they can at times struggle to include financial conversations in their daily workflows,” said Sonia Williams, senior vice president and general manager, dental at Synchrony, a premier consumer finance company. “Our partnership with Dental Intelligence will not only help providers connect patients with the right financing information at the right moment but will also make it easier for patients to understand their payment options. Our integration process is faster and more efficient than ever, strengthening care processes through innovation and allowing patients to get the care they need when insurance is not sufficient.” 


With the integration, providers will easily be able to identify whether patients are preapproved for or have the CareCredit credit card. This solution, combined with CareCredit’s suite of offerings, will enhance the financing process throughout the care journey for everyone involved, the companies stated.

With over 40 partnerships with healthcare software solutions, Synchrony has made it even easier to have financing conversations and streamline practice operations through innovative technology. The company has been a leader in consumer lending for nearly 100 years and has been at the forefront of dental financing with its CareCredit credit card for more than 35 years.
