CareCredit can verify if patients prequalify for a credit offer using the QuickScreen. This prequalification step does not affect their credit score. It just helps them see if they are probable to be approved when they apply for the CareCredit credit card. If they accept the credit offer, they will fill out the application, and the hard inquiry might impact their credit score.
