Acceptx Financial Solutions Inc, Bountiful, Utah, introduces the Zuelke Automated Credit Coach (ZACC). The ZACC, developed under the direction of industry financial expert, Paul Zuelke, is currently available for orthodontic and dental practices in the United States. The ZACC is an online service to grade patients credit without impacting their credit scores.
 
“We have validated this new online service, we know that it is a better predictor of patient repayment than anything else available,” said Paul Zuelke, founder and principal of Zuelke & Associates Inc. “The beta customers helped Acceptx refine the user experience, but the core technology that generates patient credit grades has been tested, validated and is ready to be used by any size practice.”
 
To develop the system, Zuelke and his team analyzed data collected over 20 years from hundreds of practices and looked at the accuracy of data made available from credit bureaus. Rather than using FICO score, ZACC uses its own
proprietary and proven method of developing credit grades, in conjunction with mathematical and statistical analysis of data collected from third-party sources, to create an accurate predictor of patient payments.
 
ZACC pricing is based on the number of monthly credit grades requested; each grade will be available immediately and will be offered with financial coaching and suggestions prepared by Zuelke & Associates.
