Veterinary Practices

Veterinary practices face many unique challenges, and having someone who understands your day-to-day practice dynamic is essential when finding a bookkeeper and business consultant.

Bookkeeping

Consulting

A general bookkeeper understands numbers.
We understand your practice.

Industry-Specific Financial Insights

Veterinary hospitals have unique revenue streams—exam fees, inventory, lab work, pharmacy, boarding, grooming. A CVPM-trained bookkeeper knows how to categorize and track these correctly so your reports actually reflect reality. A CVPM-experienced bookkeeper knows how to look for specific reports in your Practice Information Management System (PIMS):

Cornerstone
AVImark
DaySmart Vet (Vetter)

and knows how to align financials with practice management reports.

Accurate Benchmarking based on the AAHA/VMG Chart of Accounts

A CVPM Bookkeeper finds meaningful comparisons to industry standard. They understand key veterinary metrics like:

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
Inventory ratios
Staff-to-doctor revenue
Average transaction charge
Payroll percentage targets

Cleaner Profit & Loss Statements

Instead of generic accounting categories, you get veterinary-specific reports based on AAHA/VMG Chart of Accounts that separate:

Professional services
Pharmacy income
Laboratory income
Boarding/grooming
True medical vs. non-medical expenses

Trusted Financial Partner—Not Just a Data Entry Clerk

You get someone who can:

Interpret your numbers
Explain trends
Spot problems early
Communicate directly with your CPA
Act as part of your leadership team

AHAA/VMG Veterinary Chart of Accounts

Why does this matter?

Endorsed by several key veterinary organizations and industry partners, including the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), Veterinary Hospital Managers Association (VHMA), and VetPartners, the AAHA/VMG Chart of Accounts is the standard for classifying and aggregating revenue, expense, and balance sheet accounts in small-animal veterinary practice.

We utilize the AAHA/VMG Chart of Accounts to ensure that your financial reports are structured in a manner that aligns with the specific operational needs of veterinary practices. This allows accurate benchmarking, clear insight into service-line profitability, and meaningful KPIs—so you’re not just tracking numbers, you’re making informed business decisions based on reliable, industry-standard data.
