VHMA Webinar: Inventory: Principles for Efficiency and Financial Success
Thursday, June 13, 2019
1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET
Inventory is the second largest cost center for veterinary practices, consuming 20% to 30% of all revenue brought in, yet it is often an area of neglect in many practices. This session examines the inventory function of the practice holistically, exploring efficient processes for determining what to order, purchasing from vendors, receiving, and reconciling. Guest speaker Alexander Kates will present strategies for minimizing inventory costs and maximizing pharmacy resale profits, to ensure an efficient inventory system.
