5) Inventory On-Hand

Mismanaging inventory can be the quickest and most expensive way a veterinary practice can see holes in profit potential.  Running an on-hand inventory report should be part of your weekly practice to do list!

Knowing what type and kind of inventory are on-hand will affect prescriptions.  Not only that but also the ability to optimize the client experience with additional products to help their pet.

Creating a “stop list” is recommended as part of inventory best practices.  Look at what is selling, what is stagnant and if it really helps your veterinary practice bottom line and patient care goals.

7) Revenue By Category

Who wouldn’t want to know which area of a veterinary practice is bringing in the bucks? (Not the deer kind, the Benjamins kind.)  Although, maybe your veterinary practice sees bucks that are bringing in the bucks and you should see more bucks to make more bucks.

Someone stop me now.

ANYWAY….

Identifying the amount of revenue generated at a veterinary practice by category is another KPI and benchmarking report. Quickly run revenue generated by each category as defined in Hippo Manager.  Use this report to identify high performing areas and optimize them. Easily check for underperformers and evaluate if it’s needed as a good or service.

Also, using a “stop list” method here too is very helpful.

  • Is the category properly defined?
  • Why is this needed as part of your services or goods?
  • Is there a trend that shows a particular category needs to be removed from practice inventory or services?
  • ETC…

8) Open Invoice Report
