By the time you are reading this, the Zuelke Automated Credit Coach (ZACC) will have had its first year anniversary, with many thousands of credit grades provided to dentists and orthodontists throughout the country. We are very pleased to note that OrthoBanc has recently been licensed to be the exclusive provider of ZACC services and they are very well positioned to provide outstanding service and support to ZACC clients. Dolphin, Orthotrac, and IMS have all integrated ZACC into their management systems.

ZACC is a web based credit evaluation tool that in 60 seconds or less, and for a fee of less than $6, will evaluate Patient History information and separately evaluate a credit report to provide an instant, perfectly accurate, “Zuelke” credit grade. Also provided is a financial arrangement recommendation for the grade assigned. With ZACC, you will always know when it is safe to offer $0 down payment and/or long term financing to your patients. With ZACC you will also be able to identify, for certain, the small percentage of your patients who are not creditworthy! ZACC inquiries do not impact your patient’s/parent’s credit scores, nor do they show up as inquiries on the credit reports your patient’s/parent’s creditors may see. ZACC has a small fee per use and has no monthly or annual fees. Check ZACC out at www.getzacc.com or ask for a demonstration at the OrthoBanc booth at the AAO.
