Accurate Fee Setting:

          There are countless formulas and methods that various experts recommend using to adjust fees, but at the end of a long day in surgery, who has the time or the energy to sit down and review fees?  Most practices use an across the board percentage markup once or twice per year to keep it simple, but if your fees don't make sense before the markup, they certainly won't make sense after!  Let VMS do a full analysis of your current fee schedule.  We will make certain that the mark up on all inventory items is fair and accurate and will show how your service fees match up to other practices in your area.

Accounts Receivable:

          Every practice has clients that are reluctant to pay their bills and there has to be someone to remind them of their obligations.  The veterinarian should never be the one to do this.  As much as possible, the doctor's relationship with the client should only concern the medical care of their pets.  When the practice owner switches from care-giver and patient advocate to bill collector, the whole relationship changes tone and that's not healthy for your practice.  If you don't have someone delegated to handle this unpleasant task for you already, give VMS a call.

           Regardless of the practice software you use, VMS can help you to get your inventory under control and accurate.  We will meet with you and your team and review your current inventory systems to find ways for you to increase efficiency and accuracy.
