Pets become an integral part of any family and need to be taken care of in the event of emergencies and for routine care such as shots and checkups. Unfortunately, it's not always affordable for someone to pay the full price of a visit up-front, which results in large bills for the customer and pets that are not adequately taken care of at all times. This is the case for numerous pet owners due to the persisting economic difficulties the nation faces. When faced with mortgage payments, insurance, and basic expenses, treatment for the family pet is often given lesser priority.
Offering a vet wellness plan to clients is a responsible measure and ensures that clients return to your office over and over again. Giving clients the option to enroll in a wellness plan in-house gives customers peace of mind to ensure their pets remain healthy so they don't have to stress in the event of an emergency.
It's not as difficult to maintain a program as it seems to be. With the proper provider, you will be able to offer a variety of plans to suit customers that need basic to intensive coverage. Alternate plans can be given to those who have multiple pets. This flexibility will make your practice stand out as patient-focused rather than money-focused.
Where financing is the concern, billing can be done through an alternate company so you don't have to deal with the hassle of billing and non-payment. At the same time, customers are relieved because they don't have to have the cash up-front to receive services. Once a customer is in the system, their information can be updated at any time to accommodate changes to their address, payment methods or pet's information.
When clients are concerned about an older pet that may pass away, and want to ensure that any coverage they purchase can be used even after it passes, it's beneficial to provide a program that transfers from one animal to another without unnecessary hassle or costs to either party.
Of course it's not feasible to provide coverage to all applicants. Some pose a greater credit risk and would be too large of a risk to consider financing. With a proper wellness plan setup, screening is done when an applicant applies to ensure that they are a suitable match for the program. You may also benefit from keeping statistics about wellness programs.
