Let’s demystify the veterinary emergency billing process and how to ensure your precious companions receive the best possible care.
We follow the Ordre des Médecins Vétérinaires du Québec’s recommendations. This means that for any intervention and care your pet may need :
- A deposit equivalent to 50% of the estimate is required, and ;
- For fees and expenses already incurred, a 100% deposit is required.
Ultimately, the deposit can amount to as much as 75% of the total cost, depending on the patient’s situation.
It’s important to understand that cost estimates depend on several factors, such as your pet’s condition and severity, the type of procedure, their weight for the medication dosage required before, during and after the procedure, and the estimated length of hospitalization based on their condition following the procedure.
What happens if I am unable to pay the required deposit by debit and/or credit?
We offer different alternative financing options for our customers. Our teams are on hand to answer questions and support you throughout the process.
Feel free to discuss any questions you may have with your veterinarian, who will be able to explain the costs in detail and guide you through this stressful period.
