Frequently Asked Questions
It's completely natural to have questions and we believe informed patients make confident decisions. That's why we've put together this handy FAQ—to help you better understand what to expect, and how we support you every step of the way.
What amount can I borrow on a PlanZERO® Repayment Plan?
You can put as much as 50% of the value of your dental treatment only on the repayment plan, excluding the cost of the anaesthetic (if done under a General Anaesthetic).
I don’t own a residential property, can I use PlanZERO®?
The quick answer is no, the repayment plan must be secured by a residential property. However, the property does not have to be specifically in the patient’s name. It is not uncommon to have a trusted partner or close relative who does own a property and who is happy to use their property as security. There are two simple documents, the security document (signed by all owners of the property who appear on the title) and the repayments document (signed by the patient).
What happens to the security property once the documents are signed?
Once all the forms are signed, the member clinic will lodge a charge against the property which will remain until the amount owing is fully repaid. Once the debt is repaid the charge will be removed. While there is a charge on the property, it cannot be sold without consent from the clinic, unless the debt is repaid and the charge is removed.
