Care Now, Pay Later: A Solution for Affordable Healthcare
The rising cost of healthcare has become a significant financial burden for many individuals. Unexpected medical emergencies can be particularly devastating, often leading to financial hardship. To address this challenge, innovative payment solutions like Care Now, Pay Later (CNPL) have emerged as a viable option. At HealthPay, we're committed to making healthcare more accessible through our CNPL solution.
Understanding Care Now, Pay Later (CNPL)
CNPL is a financial arrangement that allows patients to defer the cost of healthcare treatments and procedures. Instead of paying upfront, patients can opt to pay in installments over a specified period. This flexibility can alleviate the financial pressure associated with medical expenses.
