Practices receive money from several sources on different schedules, and an advance repaid from receipts interacts with all of them. Here is what to ask first.
Apply Now →In general terms, a merchant cash advance is funding repaid through a portion of future receipts. In a practice, those receipts might include patient copays and self-pay amounts at the front desk, card payments, and deposits from payers. Different offers capture different parts of that flow. Ask which deposits are used and how often a share is taken, because that determines what the practice actually feels.
This page is general information, and the specific paperwork of any offer is what governs.
| Source | Timing | Pattern |
|---|---|---|
| Copays and self-pay | At the visit | Frequent, smaller |
| Card payments | Processor schedule | Steady |
| Payer deposits | Weeks after service | Batched, larger |
| Patient balances billed later | Varies | Irregular |
A practice with a larger share of frequent, smaller receipts fits the structure more naturally than one that relies on a few big payer deposits.

We fund $25,000 to $5,000,000, funded in as little as 24 hours, with a 5-minute application and a soft credit pull. Sole proprietors can apply. Start here and compare what you receive with a line of credit, equipment financing or working capital.
If your problem is claims timing, a line of credit often matches it more directly. If you are buying equipment, equipment financing is more targeted. An advance can make sense when the receipts pattern fits and the purpose is clear and short-term.
One practical step before applying: pull your deposit history for the last few months and sort it by source. If most of your cash arrives in two or three large payer deposits, ask how an offer would treat a month when one of them is late. If most arrives in small daily amounts, the structure is a more natural match, though the total repayment still has to make sense against your margins.
It depends on the offer. Ask which deposits are used and how often a share is taken.
Deposits may drop while costs continue. Ask how the offer treats a slowdown in deposits.
Not necessarily. Confirm in writing how the offer works.
Yes. Sole proprietors can apply, with a 5-minute application and a soft credit pull.
Often a line of credit is. Compare total repayment across options.
