CARE CREDIT and/or MEDICAL FINANCING CORP.



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had any success with either one of these companies? Does Care Credit even work with people going to MX? How strict are they. I was surpriisingly just turned down by my credit union and now am a little gun shy to persue outside options. Any input would be wonderful.

Thank you.

My surgeon's office accepted CareCredit, so that's what I did. I was in the states, so I don't know about Mexico. I used it to pay for the amount that I owed over insurance - which in my case would only pay for 50% after I met my deductible. I applied online and literally had an answer in seconds, then could print out my number and use it immediately if needed.

That's all my experience thus far - don't know how they'll be to work with in the long run.

I used carecredit for my co-pays, but I didn't go to Mexico so I'm not sure. It is definitely legit though and I have found it very easy and straightforward to use.

So I can't really help as far as using Care Credit in Mexico goes but I was a poor college student with no health insurance and needed dental work done. I applied for care credit and it was great. It is legit and easy to use.

Good luck

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
