I enjoyed this article. Broad and well written.
Like many of our in demand careers money is the issue. This will probably be solved by removing the locally owned vet practices and making them all corporate but then costs for the customer will rise.
It seems like a great time to create Anthem, UHC etc real pet insurance that can be bundled with the workers health insurance. People love their pets but in many cases can’t afford the crazy bills that pop up with the first emergency.
If you can’t afford your pets health care, you shouldn’t get a pet. Insurance is great, but that means the Vets will get squeezed on rates, just like worker health care.
The cost of the corporate vet clinics is ridiculous. A friend of mine goes to one and can’t even go in for a shot without a $200 bill that includes an exam charge that did not happen. I’m still able to go to a one location mom and pop practice that doesn’t gouge me just to walk in the door, but I know the era of the small practice is coming to an end and this article only reinforces that. The industry is trying to see how much people are willing to spend on their pet’s health and it will be the pets that suffer because people like me can only afford so much a year on this. Don’t get a pet if you can’t afford it? Thats a recipe for a lot of unwanted shelter pets. Their needs to be an affordability aspect to pet care for people that love their pets and are willing to spend money on them but can only afford so much with an industry whose costs are rising too quickly for the average wage earner.
In 2010, Purdue University increased the class size for its veterinary school from 70 to 84. Jim Weisman, the school’s associate dean for clinical education, said the college is stuck at that number over a decade later.
The question is – why? Why hasn’t Purdue increased the size of its admitted classes? Even if increasing the size doesn’t solve the issue, if the applicants are otherwise qualified, why not?
My daughter is a RVT she left the field because of low paying no benefits part time jobs . She was working for 3 Vet practices working 65 to 75 hours per week between them . No health insurance , no PTO . Plenty of abuse . It is no surprise they can’t attract people to a job like that.
Vets need to pay their techs more. If they don’t, they’ll soon have to decide if they can afford NOT to pay them more by impacting the quantity and quality of services. Supply and demand, just like goods…
