STRATEGIC FUNDING LAUNCHES NEW FINANCING PRODUCT FOR HEALTHCARE PRACTICES; ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH BANKERS HEALTHCARE GROUP

September 19, 2017

NEW YORK, NY – Strategic Funding announced today the launch of Helix, a financing product created to provide easy and fast funding to independent healthcare practices. Different from other alternative types of financing, Helix makes larger funding amounts and longer terms available to healthcare professionals. Funding amounts range from $10,000 – $500,000 and terms go out as far as 36 months. In addition, the Helix product comes with a risk matrix built specifically for healthcare businesses allowing for more customized financing options and quicker approvals.

As a part of this launch, Strategic Funding has partnered with Bankers Healthcare Group (BHG), a leader in the healthcare financing industry since 2001. Through this partnership, Strategic Funding and BHG will be able to offer an expanded set of financing products to their customers, and extend new options to practices that have seen little to no alternative financing options in the past.

“Over the past few years, we have seen independent healthcare and medical practices struggle due to lower insurance reimbursements and longer wait times for insurance payouts. The combination of these two situations has made it difficult for many practices to consistently maintain a cash flow. This lack of working capital has resulted in disrupted operation and, in too many cases, practices needing to close or be sold to larger institutions,” said Andrew Reiser, CEO of Strategic Funding.

“We knew we wanted to create a product specifically tailored to meet the needs of the health care industry. Which is why we partnered with BHG. Leveraging their years of experience in the healthcare financing industry, we have created a product that makes sense for these practices,” adds Reiser.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Strategic,” said Bob Castro, President and Co-founder of BHG. “Through this partnership we’re able to expand financing options available for these practices. Healthcare professionals require financing built to work with the unique business challenges they face. This partnership allows us to do that. We can now offer financing for terms that have not been readily available in the past. It’s a win-win for all involved.”
