Clinic charging examples
Example 1: Seasonal "WelFarm" fee
A monthly charge for every farm signed up for WelFarm that covers:
The per cow subscription fee back to WelFarm
Some administration time for data upload (generally 2 hours/season)
Vet ‘consult’ time for any feedback during the season and discussions reviewing results
From there each on-farm service charged as they occur i.e. BCS, locomotion score, tail score. This allows an easy, customisable package for farmers and keeping it simple if they reduce or add services throughout the season.
Example 2: Base price +

Intro package
2x whole herd BCS
1x locomotion score
