What percent of pets see a
veterinarian?
Cat 2 q5
Pet owners
Cat 2 q5
Point: not every pet
sees a veterinarian,

can be difficult to do
this in veterinary
medicine.
Cat 3 a1

family?
Cat 3 q1

Cash flow all expenses
except tuition. No loans for
room, board, books. Not
possible?
Dr Dani McVety
Cat 3 q1
What is:
Do not use DRIP or any
other ‘repayment plans’.
Live as if salary = $40,000
Use $30,000 to pay down debt
(get side jobs at ER)
Even $300,000 debt
GONE in 10 years!!
Cat 3 q1
This can be a way to get
some help without
going all to a bank to
get started with cash.
Cat 3 a2
What is ask
family or friends?
Cat 3 q 2
While local banks may not
understand financing, this
business, which sponsors
many VBMA conferences,
also helped us when we
purchased Lakeview
Veterinary Clinic.
Cat 3 a 3
Who is “Live Oak
Lending”?
Cat 3 q3
When you have a loan in place,
this is something, that while is
important ‘down the road’, is
even more critical for cash
flow at the beginning of your
practice ownership journey.
Cat3A4
What is working
capital?
Cat3 q4
This can be the number one
reason you do not get start
up financing – it is
something we all have –
but YOU think no one else
has them but you.
Cat3 A5
What is making a
decision that is out
of your comfort
zone?
Cat3 Q5
When working with business
books, while similar, this
type of personal account is
not the same type of
accounting that you will use
in the practice.
Cat4 A1
What is personal
checking account?
Cat4 Q1
Before even picking a
software, you need to
understand this about
Bookkeeping- it will help
you to organize how your
books will be set up. It is
similar to your expenses.
Cat4 A2
What are business
income and expense
categories?
Cat4 q2
Daily Double
This is one way to
keep your expense
receipts. You
don’t end up with
paper.
Cat4 A3
What is a PDF of
the receipt?
Cat4 q3
Will IRS take it?
Audited … TWICE!
The last year in 2014, the
auditor said that a PDF of
the receipt is perfectly
acceptable!
Cat4 q3
If you are buying an
existing practice,
this is probably the
best software to use.
Cat4 a4
What is the software
they are already
using?
Cat4 q4
According to the Association of
certified Fraud examiners, this is
the percent of revenue a typical
organization (not necessarily
practice) looses due to fraud. The
median amount lost was this
number, and the fraud was going
on for this many months.
(looking for 2: % revenue lost & how long)
Cat4 A5
What is
5% of business revenues lost to fraud
each year. Median loss was $140,000.
Frauds lasted an average of 18 months
before being detected?
Cat4 q5
Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from
happening
Principal #1: separate duties
For example, if the person who receives an inventory
shipment (control of the asset) is the person who pays
the bill (control of the record), it is conceivable that
large amounts of inventory could be stolen unless
checks and balances are in place. Often, these
systems are virtually non-existent in veterinary
practices.
Cat4 q5
Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud
from happening
Principal #2: Restrict access
Only person that needs resource has access – no
matter how long been working for you.
Blank checks stored off site or in safe
Large inventory purchases (see Dr R "8 things
attourney's, accountants and practice managers
DON'T tell you about practice ownership“ on why
never do that) have only small amount on site, and
rest off.
Cat4 q5
Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud
from happening
Principal #3: Let staff know you are
checking things
We audit our flea/ tick product and food every 2
week for ordering. If we are short – we are asking
everyone, and bringing up at bi-weekly staff meeting
that we are short. One DVM came in late to check on
patient and found associate putting dog food into his
car.
We take deposit to bank nightly, and if not match,
have staff member find error
Cat4 q5
Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from happening
Principal #4: always have bank
statement mailed to your home and
reconciled by yourself or independent
person – not office manager.
Can tell of many stories some well over $400,000
that could have been prevented.
Problem is not trust, but trust too much, and
employee can see a window when they have a need.
Cat4 q5
While not truly a tax, it
is a cost of doing
business as people use
only plastic.
Cat5 A1
What are
merchandise credit
card fees?
Cat5 q1
Lakeview Veterinary Clinic:

33% cash, 33% credit card, 34% checks
2018 revenue by pament:
22 % Cash 70 % credt & debit 8% checks
Credit card fees 2018
$10,342
Cat5 q1
Discovered by my excellent Office Manager.
In 2016 upgraded CC machine to use chip
reader on cards.
If credit card or swipe debit = 3.78% of
transaction
Debit chip 0.75%
OM noticed, merchant company was still
collecting for chip debit, same as swipe debit
Cat5 q1
Business taxes on property,
& sales taxes on items
purchased would be
classified in which
category: fixed or variable
expenses.
Cat5 a2
What is
property tax = fixed
expense and
sales taxes = variable?
Cat5 q2
These are 2 of the
taxes removed from
your paycheck that
go to Federal
programs.
Cat5 a3
What is FICA &
FICA medicare?
Cat5 q3
Cat5 q3
FICA = Federal Insurance Contributions Act
(Social Security)
FICA Medicare = Medicare
Employee share of FICA = ?
6.2% of gross pay
Employee share of FICA Medicare = ?
1.45%
Cat5 q3
Employer share of FICA = ?
6.2% of gross pay
Employer share of FICA Medicare = ?
1.45%
Cat5 q3
Part of the ‘cost’ of having
employee’s.
Was not case before 1930.
From a practical standpoint,
50% more
Cat5 q3
Depending on the
state your practice is
in, or where you live,
you may see this
taken from your
paycheck as well.
Cat5 a4
What is State
income withholding
tax?
Cat5 q4
Cat5 q4
This business expense, while
in the strict sense is not
labeled a tax, but every state
assesses every business for
this ‘insurance’ which takes
care of employees if they are
injured on the job.
Cat5 a5
What is
Workman’s
compensation
‘insurance’?
Cat5 q5
Final Jeopardy
Final Category
Make your wager
Too big to fail
Final
jeopardy
category
This is what you can
do when you are a big
company and
everyone knows your
name.
Final clue Ans
What is: there is NO
such thing as too big
to fail?
Final question
• Toys r us
• Sears
• AOL
• What about in veterinary medicine?
In 1986
• Tuckaway Veterinary clinic, Milwaukee WI,
– 14-18 OHE & Castrations
• Per week
– OHE & Castrations done at shelters: none
• Pharmacy was taught to be a ‘profit center’
– All medications from veterinary clinics.
In 2018
• Lakeview Veterinary Clinic
• Surgery cases last week:
• 2 OHE
– 5 tumor removals
– 1 foreign body
• Pharmacy only 8% of revenue
– Must be competitive, not just traditional retail
markup margins
In 2048
Jefferson Veterinary Clinic
Surgeries?
Euth?
pharmacy – if any?
Will we be replaced by computers?
So what if you hit a brick wall?
Now you have the secret ingredients to help you avoid being
‘the other people’.
Practice ownership is NOT a finite list.
You can buy a multi million dollar practice.
Maybe easier than my solo doctor practice (I did not
say that. 

  • 79. Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from happening Principal #1: separate duties For example, if the person who receives an inventory shipment (control of the asset) is the person who pays the bill (control of the record), it is conceivable that large amounts of inventory could be stolen unless checks and balances are in place. Often, these systems are virtually non-existent in veterinary practices. Cat4 q5
  • 80. Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from happening Principal #2: Restrict access Only person that needs resource has access – no matter how long been working for you. Blank checks stored off site or in safe Large inventory purchases (see Dr R "8 things attourney's, accountants and practice managers DON'T tell you about practice ownership“ on why never do that) have only small amount on site, and rest off. Cat4 q5
  • 81. Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from happening Principal #3: Let staff know you are checking things We audit our flea/ tick product and food every 2 week for ordering. If we are short – we are asking everyone, and bringing up at bi-weekly staff meeting that we are short. One DVM came in late to check on patient and found associate putting dog food into his car. We take deposit to bank nightly, and if not match, have staff member find error Cat4 q5
  • 82. Four practical & Simple ways to keep fraud from happening Principal #4: always have bank statement mailed to your home and reconciled by yourself or independent person – not office manager. Can tell of many stories some well over $400,000 that could have been prevented. Problem is not trust, but trust too much, and employee can see a window when they have a need. Cat4 q5
  • 83. While not truly a tax, it is a cost of doing business as people use only plastic. Cat5 A1
  • 85. Lakeview Veterinary Clinic: Purchase Dec 2007. 2008 revenue by payment: 33% cash, 33% credit card, 34% checks 2018 revenue by pament: 22 % Cash 70 % credt & debit 8% checks Credit card fees 2018 $10,342 Cat5 q1
  • 86. Discovered by my excellent Office Manager. In 2016 upgraded CC machine to use chip reader on cards. If credit card or swipe debit = 3.78% of transaction Debit chip 0.75% OM noticed, merchant company was still collecting for chip debit, same as swipe debit Cat5 q1
  • 87. Business taxes on property, & sales taxes on items purchased would be classified in which category: fixed or variable expenses. Cat5 a2
  • 88. What is property tax = fixed expense and sales taxes = variable? Cat5 q2
  • 89. These are 2 of the taxes removed from your paycheck that go to Federal programs. Cat5 a3
  • 90. What is FICA & FICA medicare? Cat5 q3
  • 91. Cat5 q3 FICA = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (Social Security) FICA Medicare = Medicare
  • 92. Employee share of FICA = ? 6.2% of gross pay Employee share of FICA Medicare = ? 1.45% Cat5 q3
  • 93. Employer share of FICA = ? 6.2% of gross pay Employer share of FICA Medicare = ? 1.45% Cat5 q3
  • 94. Part of the ‘cost’ of having employee’s. Was not case before 1930. From a practical standpoint, 50% more Cat5 q3
  • 95. Depending on the state your practice is in, or where you live, you may see this taken from your paycheck as well. Cat5 a4
  • 96. What is State income withholding tax? Cat5 q4

  20. Just as in the diabetic patient, we need all of these to evaluate the most thoroughly, if we our clients are limited on funds, we may have to pick and choose. While we may not / should not be limited on resources to generate these reports, (software can do with a few keystrokes) when your time is limited, you may only look at one or two on a regular or annual basis, but you should look at all together to get a good overall health of the practice.
