A full itemised invoice detailing any charges made will be provided for any consultation, surgical procedure, or transaction made with us.

A comprehensive written price list is available on request.

11. Methods of Payment

Accounts are due for settlement following consultation, upon the discharge from the practice of your animal or upon collection of drugs or diets, unless prior arrangement with the Practice Manager as been made.

We currently accept the following methods of payment:-

  • Cash
  • Credit/debit card – Switch, Solo, MasterCard, Visa, or Delta, American Express
  • Please note as from 1st September 2017 we no longer accept cheques.

12. Estimates of Treatment Costs

We will routinely provide a written estimate of the probable costs based upon the procedures, tests or medication foreseen at the time of consultation. Please be aware that any estimate can only be approximate and that the course of treatment may alter dependant on whether your pet’s illness follows a conventional course.

We will keep you informed of any further fees incurred ad request permission to continue where possible, unless a veterinary surgeon feels any delay would not be in the best interests of your pet, or we are unable to contact you.

13. Settlement Terms

Should an account not be settled at the time of consultation, discharge of your animal from the care of Arun Veterinary Group Ltd, or upon collection of medications/diets, (without prior arrangement with the Practice Administrator), a reminder invoice will be sent and an additional charge of £15 excl VAT with respect to administration may be levied. Should it be necessary further reminders will be sent and further administration charges incurred.

After due notice overdue accounts will be referred to a debt collection agency and any costs incurred in respect of collecting the debt, such as the cost of correspondence, court fees will be added to the account.

14. Inability to Pay

If for any reason you are unable to settle the account as specified, we ask you to discuss the matter as soon as possible with a member of staff. Please note any instalments or part payment plans can only be sanctioned with the express permission of the Practice Administrator.

15. Direct Insurance Claims

On occasion and only after agreement with the Practice Administrator it may be possible to process an insurance claim directly with the insurer. Where possible we request that a pre – authorisation form is completed. There may be circumstances where we ask for a deposit of £250 to be paid. There is a charge of £50.00 including VAT to cover the substantial administration costs of direct claims in addition to the policy excess is required at the time of consultation, collection of drugs/diets or upon discharge of your pet from our care.

We request the following at the time of request –

  • A signed insurance claim form at the time of collection of your pet and indication that payment should be made direct to us.
  • To pay all outstanding fees in full immediately if the insurance company decline to accept the claim in part or in full, or if the insurance company has not made settlement within 45 days of submission of the claim. Failure to do so could result in us seeking full settlement from you after 45 days.

Please note that if a direct claim is approved, any treatment must commence within 3 months of that approval.

16. Interim payments

In some cases, where fees are substantial and your animal is likely to remain in the practice for ongoing care, we reserve the right to request an interim payment of costs to date or part payment in advance.

17. Client confidentiality

The veterinary surgeon/client relationship is founded on trust, and in normal circumstances we will not disclose to any third party any information about a client or their animal either given by the client, or revealed by clinical examination or by post-mortem examination. Permission to pass on confidential information may be express or implied. Express permission may be either verbal or in writing, usually in response to a request. Permission may also be implied from circumstances, for example in the making of a claim under a pet insurance policy, when the insurance company becomes entitled to receive all information relevant to the claim and to seek clarification if required.

Case records including radiographic films, other images and similar documents are the property of, and will be retained by, Arun Veterinary Group in the interests of animal welfare and for our own protection. The Data Protection Acts 1984 and 1999 give anyone the right to be informed about any personal data relating to themselves on payment of an administration charge. At the request of a client we will provide copies of relevant clinical records, including any clinical records for the animal that have been acquired from another practice. Where any significant expense is involved in providing such copies, as there might be, for example, with the provision of copy radiographs, a reasonable charge may be made.

18. Complaints

We pride ourselves on offering highest standards of patient care and customer service at all times. If you are in any way unhappy with the service provided by Arun Veterinary Group, please contact our Practice Manager so that your concerns may be addressed at the earliest opportunity. If serious concerns remain, please address any letters of complaint to the Director Matthew Gittings. Your letter of complaint will be acknowledged and the matter investigated.

19. Returning Unused Medication

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have the right to:

Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
