Best Merchant Accounts for Radiologists

By Phillip Parker

Last Updated: January 14, 2019

Radiology clinics have relatively basic payment processing needs, but that doesn’t mean that every merchant account provider will be a good fit for your imaging center. Diagnostic imaging centers are best served by versatile and robust billing systems that come with competitive per-transaction rates. In most cases, a pricing model that charges higher fixed monthly fees in exchange for lower per-transaction fees will be ideal due to the very large average transaction sizes for radiology clinics. By avoiding excessive fees and providing a large number of payment possibilities for your patients, you’ll be able to reap the benefits of credit card processing while avoiding the pitfalls.

To help you find the best fit for your imaging center, we’ve put together the following list of the best merchant accounts for radiologists. The providers on this list offer online billing tools, accounting software integration, marketing solutions, and other useful services for operating your radiology practice. They are also known to provide low-commitment contracts with transparent pricing and quality customer service. To find the right provider for your radiology location, be sure to research each processor’s products and features and compare pricing and terms.
