The Healthcare Spending Card is designed to be a better way to pay for your healthcare expenses and to provide an additional source of funds (upon application and approval) to help you pay for the healthcare you deserve. It can link to your existing health savings account (e.g., HSAs) to utilize available pre-tax funds to repay healthcare bills paid with the Card, minimizing the need to carry multiple cards.
Not only does the Card provide a line of credit, it also has additional benefits including multiple repayment types including 0% financing options. It also offers discounts on healthcare-related products and services, as well as additional value-added services, such as Bill Concierge service to help lower hospital bills through GoodBill3. And finally, the Card has no annual fee2 so it can be there for you when you need it and not cost you anything when you don't.
No.
No. This Card works with or without a linked spending account. Upon approval, you are assigned a credit limit that can be used to pay for qualified healthcare expenses. If you have linked your spending account, you can use the pre-tax funds available to pay back the Card at your discretion.
When you apply for the Card, you can link your eligible health savings account (HSA).
You pay no annual fees2.
We don’t charge interest2.
You can take advantage of 0% financing2 options for the following qualified expenses:
- Dental: 0% interest2, $0 fees2 when repaid over 12 months.
- Hospital: 0% interest2, $0 fees2 when repaid over 12 months.
- Other healthcare: 0% interest2, $0 fees2 when repaid over 4 installments
For all other types of healthcare bills we do charge origination and periodic finance fees that total between 8-13% of the original loan amount over 12 months (see chart for how this varies by loan amount). Specifically, we charge a 5% Origination fee plus periodic finance fees (charged four times over the 12 months and get smaller as you pay back your loan).
