Independent Veterinary Practitioners Association Partners with Trupanion to Level the Playing Field
November 09 2021 - 3:12PM
The Independent Veterinary Practitioners Association (IVPA), an
organization representing the interests and needs of independently
owned hospitals in North America, announced today its partnership
with Trupanion, the leader in medical insurance for pets in the
United States and Canada.
The partnership is a clear acknowledgement of Trupanion’s
support for independent practices across North America. With its
payment solution, Trupanion is the only provider that can pay the
veterinary invoice at the time of check-out, often in seconds,
eliminating the cumbersome reimbursement model.
“Trupanion’s commitment and ability to level the playing field
for independent practices is unequalled in the insurance industry
and we want to recognize the value they bring to our practices,”
said Pamela Stevenson, CVPM, executive director of IVPA, and
Trupanion member. “As veterinary professionals, our work
never stops. With its exceptional, around the clock customer
service and ability to pay claims directly to practices, Trupanion
provides the needed support to independent practitioners whenever
the need should arise.”
In addition to receiving direct payment for invoices at the time
of checkout with Trupanion’s payment solution, veterinarians can
also realize savings in credit card fees, increases in-house
pharmacy sales with clients more likely to purchase medication at
the time of checkout, improved client compliance and daily
efficiencies – all at no cost to the veterinarian.
“We value IVPA’s partnership and look forward to our continued
work with independent veterinarians so they can focus on medicine,
while their clients focus on getting the best care available for
their pets and not the cost,” said Dr. Steve Weinrauch, chief
veterinary officer at Trupanion.
