CareCredit Partners with OxyGo

COSTA MESA, Calif. (July 17, 2017)—CareCredit will provide financing options for patients who need oxygen therapy care at nearly 20,000 providers across the country under a new, multi-year agreement with OxyGo, a provider for oxygen therapy equipment and services.

CareCredit is a provider of promotional health care financing, serving millions of people each year.

“Entering this new market with a well-regarded partner aligns perfectly with our goal of helping people pay for the care they need when they need it,” said Greg Pierce, senior vice president and general manager, CareCredit. “Our agreement with OxyGo gives their providers a way to help people finance the equipment they need—with convenient, monthly payments—so they can maintain or regain their independence.”

CareCredit data shows the availability of financing options plays a key role in a family’s health care decisions. According to CareCredit Path to Purchase Research, 72 percent of individuals surveyed believe that a health care credit card allows them to be better prepared for their family’s needs and not delay care.

“This new partnership will help patients live more independent and healthier lives,” said Dave Marquard, CEO and founder of OxyGo. “Having the freedom to be on the go while you’re on oxygen can make a big difference. Now more patients will be able to get an OxyGo and/or OxyGo FIT portable oxygen concentrator, giving them greater independence when they need it.”

Additionally, this announcement further illustrates CareCredit’s expanding acceptance network into the durable medical equipment market. This growth is in response to cardholder feedback to continually enhance the utility of the CareCredit card by offering financing for a full-range of health and wellness services when and where they need it.
