Veterinary
We focus on the health of your practice so that you can focus on the health of your patients.

Are you looking at the information necessary to understand how well your practice is doing?
Is the review of these key performance indicators (KPIs) and business-critical reports part of your routine?
- Monthly revenue
- Revenue by service type
- Average charge per transaction/invoice
- Monthly Accounts Receivable
- New clients per month
- New clients returning for second visits
- Client turnover rate (CTR)
Monitoring the appropriate KPIs for your practice and developing benchmarks will help you keep track of your practices’ financial viability, quality of care, and efficient production and collection, just to name a few.
Davis & Hodgdon can automate these reports into a manageable format and show you how to effectively analyze your business in just a matter of minutes each month, so that you have the time you need to work on your practice, not in your practice.
