Now more and more families will choose to keep pets, but once the pet is sick, it is necessary to timely to the pet hospital for treatment, this time we will usually find that the cost of the pet to see a lot more expensive than the cost of people to see a lot of money, so this practice in the end is not a violation of the law?
To date, this practice is not illegal, because the management of pet medical institutions is not very standardized, the pet medical practitioners are also mixed, want to thoroughly rectify the situation is very difficult. It is also because of the lack of management, so that led to the current pet hospitals to ask for the price, the situation of expensive to see the doctor occurred. So in addition to the lack of regulation, what other reasons will lead to pets see the doctor more expensive than people?
1. High investment costs. We humans visit the doctor countries tend to have a variety of public hospitals to give us the best medical conditions and benefits. And people also have health insurance, when you see the doctor is also able to reimburse most of the medical costs. But these benefits are not available to pets, so the vast majority of pet hospitals are privately run clinics. When individuals start a clinic, they often need to pay rent, utilities, and labor costs, including medical equipment that needs to be updated and purchased in a timely manner, which is a large amount of money. The businessman who wants to make a quick return on his investment will naturally add these prices to the price of a pet visit.
2. Difficulty. In the pet to see the doctor, often the pet will not express their own exactly where the discomfort, so the doctor is no way to touch or visual to determine what kind of pet is sick, so this time you need to use a lot of medical equipment to detect the pet's physical condition, and the medical equipment in the use of the time there is also wear and tear. Usually pets with medical equipment basically every two to three years will need to be replaced, the more often you use it, the frequency of replacement is also faster, so pets will be more expensive to see the doctor.
