Dental treatments are not just painful but expensive as well. In fact, given a choice between a root canal and removing the tooth, a lot of people may choose the latter given the several sessions of unbearable pain and the extent of money involved in this treatment or for that matter any other dental procedure.
Funding dental treatments at times become very challenging as most health insurance plans do not provide any coverage in their schemes. However, there is a new option that can be availed now. An equated monthly installment (EMI) facility to be precise.
While Bajaj Finserve has been offering an easy EMI facility with Lifecare Finance, across 400 cities and 2,700 partner clinics and hospitals but it's restricted to their EMI network. Similarly, dental clinic chain Sabkadentist has partnered with players like Bajaj Finserv, Capital Float and Snapmint EMI network to offer premium plans varying from three, six, nine, to 12 months of EMI payments.
A recent entrant in this space is Aditya Birla Finance Ltd (ABFL) that has partnered the Indian Dental Association (IDA) for an easy EMI facility to make dental treatments more accessible and convenient in the country. The initiative was made public at the recently concluded 11th World Dental Show 2019 in Mumbai. The easy EMI facility will have options starting at 0% interest. ABFL is the lending subsidiary of Aditya Birla Capital Ltd.
Rakesh Singh, managing director and chief executive officer, Aditya Birla Finance Ltd (ABFL), said, the scheme will provide customers with great value in the form of hassle-free credit with easy installments for their dental treatments. “It will be a seamless, fast and convenient transaction which is a win-win for both doctors and patients,” he said.
The EMI facility is aimed at helping dentists with flexible monthly payment options thereby enabling patients to take avail dental treatments by making dental financing accessible, cashless, and convenient. Currently the programme pilot has been launched in Mumbai and Delhi with limited IDA dentist members and will be implemented Pan India in a phased manner.
Dr. Ashok Dhoble, secretary general, Indian Dental Association, said, easy EMI facility for dental treatments is an important step in facilitating and boosting the dental practice in India. “A much-needed service, this will ease the patients in terms of easy financing options on EMI basis. This facility is indeed a need of the hour to encourage people to willingly undertake oral treatment. Gearing-up on similar lines as in some of the developed countries,” he said.
