I understand why practices do them, it bonds people to a practice, it does spread the cost of routine care and enables discounts - I like them for that but it’s had the effect of the owners wanting everything that could be included to be included because it’s included if that makes sense, even if the individual pet doesn’t need a particular part. And I completely understand why the owner feels that way. They do truly save money if you are the type to do preventative care such as vaccines. If I had a practice I would offer one but would be more tailored (which would probably make it not cost effective for owner and business so probably wouldn’t work!)I find the selling of health plans very poor. Whilst sitting in reception of my vets there was continual pressure from the staff who were ringing all possible clients selling monthly plans. No medical info if was relevant to the client just bank details and sign up.
