What you'll build

What you will be able to do

Each lab ends with a concrete result that you build yourself and the checker confirms, cell by cell.

  • Flag every household as active or lapsed with EDATE, then count active clients, active patients and patients per client.
  • Calculate visits per patient by segment and for the practice, the extra visits needed to reach a target and what they are worth.
  • Calculate the ATC of every service type, the revenue mix, the practice ATC and the clinical ATC without counter sales.
  • Compare the team on revenue per FTE and appointments per consulting hour and calculate the practice's revenue per FTE vet and nurse support ratio.
  • Calculate margin % per product, the gross profit, the weighted margin of the food line and the price that hits a target margin.
  • Value a monthly wellness plan for the client and the practice and compare its contribution with an average pay-as-you-go pet.
  • Calculate the full staff cost and its share of revenue, then the utilisation of the appointment book per day and for the week.
  • Calculate the break-even number of transactions, fill a six-month P&L, measure the margin of safety and chart revenue against costs.

About this course

A veterinary clinic can be fully booked and still underperform financially. This course shows where to look. You count active clients and patients from records, measure visits per patient per year and quantify the revenue gap against a target. Average transaction charge is analysed by service type, and productivity is measured as revenue per FTE and appointments per hour for vets and nurses. You calculate margin and markup on pharmacy and food, compare monthly wellness plans with pay-as-you-go, track staff cost as a share of revenue and appointment book utilisation, and build a practice P&L with break-even transactions and a margin of safety. For practice owners, managers and veterinary business students.
