Common funding scenarios in UK healthcare

  • Buying or leasing diagnostic or treatment equipment (X‑ray, dental chairs, sterilisation units)
  • Refurbishment or fit-out of clinics and care homes

What types of healthcare finance can we introduce?

Fast Business Loans works with a wide panel of lenders and brokers. We introduce enquiries to providers that offer the following common products:

Unsecured & secured business loans

Short- to medium-term loans for working capital or smaller equipment purchases. Typical sizes: £10k–£250k. Terms from 1–7 years. Unsecured loans avoid business asset charges but may carry higher rates; secured loans can offer longer terms and lower monthly costs.

3. Rapid contact

Selected partners contact you to discuss options, request documents and, if appropriate, prepare quotes.

Example use cases

GP surgery: equipment upgrade

A GP surgery needed £45,000 to replace diagnostic and sterilisation equipment. Fast Business Loans introduced the practice to an equipment finance specialist; the clinic secured a hire‑purchase plan with manageable monthly instalments and kept working capital intact.

Get matched with equipment finance providers

Care home: refurbishment and extension

A regional care home required £350,000 for an extension to increase capacity. We connected them to a broker who arranged a commercial mortgage combined with a short-term refurbishment facility — enabling staged payments and repayment profiles aligned with income projections.

Costs, rates & responsible borrowing

Rates, fees and terms are set by the lender or broker and vary with loan size, security and business profile. Fast Business Loans does not set rates and does not lend. We encourage responsible borrowing:

  • Only borrow what you need and can realistically afford to repay.
  • Compare total cost (including arrangement and early‑repayment fees) before agreeing.
  • Seek independent professional advice if you are unsure about the terms.

All offers are subject to the lender’s assessment and due diligence. Representative examples should be requested from the lender or broker you speak with.
