About Medicard

Medicard was founded in 1996 to finance elective health care in Canada. Patients scan a clinic's QR code and apply online; Medicard arranges the loan with the patient and pays the provider directly, in advance of treatment if the provider asks.

The provider pages say there is no cost to the provider and that staff are not involved in the application or approval. Aesthetics, cosmetic procedures and dermatology appear in a long list of specialties in its provider directory.

Who it is for

A Canadian aesthetic or cosmetic clinic that wants a financing option handled entirely between the lender and the patient, at no cost to the clinic.

Published starting price: $0 to the provider. How it charges: No cost to the provider.
