A system and method are described for quickly supplying health care and other service providers with a financial profile of those customers who must pay for all or a portion of their services out of pocket. This allows the service provider to make more consistent and effective decisions about managing collections from customers, thereby reducing bad debt expense. The system can alternatively help the service provider inform its customers about options for financial assistance. The method includes obtaining identifying data from the service provider, obtaining demographic and market data pertaining to the customer from third party sources, generating an independent financial profile of the customer, and timely providing the service provider with this information and a suggested payment plan.
