• Lack of information

No Loans

GE Capital does not provide individuals with medical financing loans, but instead, focus on helping providers finance projects that spur change within the healthcare industry. For individuals looking for a healthcare loan to pay for surgeries or other healthcare necessities, they will need to go to another provider who specializes in helping the patient rather than funding the medical provider.

Lack of Information

Since GE Capital is working with providers to fund products, services, and even equipment. There are a number of factors that go into determining the loan type, interest rates, and payment plans, so it is impossible to concretely state what the APR or associated fees will entail. In order to find that information, the provider will need to work directly with GE Capital to obtain a quote.
