Life of Riley is proud to have supported Open Door Veterinary Collective’s research into the mitigation of cash flow and credit ineligibility challenges faced by pet families trying to access veterinary care. Based on the analysis of six years of payment plan data from veterinary clinics, the authors show that both non-profit and for-profit clinics could provide 14.5 times more care to their communities by adopting payment plans.
