Veterinary Clinics & Animal Hospitals

Clear Financial Records for Your Veterinary Practice

Veterinary clinics and animal hospitals manage income from consultations, procedures, diagnostics, medicine sales and other services. Alongside this income, medicine purchases, staffing costs and equipment expenses all affect practice profitability.

OBG Outsourcing provides bookkeeping and accounting support focused on practice reporting, medicine inventory accounting and payroll. We help veterinary businesses and the accounting firms serving them maintain organized records and understand their financial performance.

Veterinary Practice Reporting

A clear breakdown of income and expenses helps practice owners understand how different activities contribute to business results.

We prepare profit and loss statements, balance sheets and supporting management reports. Where reliable data is available, income can be grouped by consultations, procedures, diagnostics, medicine sales and other services, with expense categories that make operating costs easier to review.

Revenue and Collection Reconciliation

Practice management reports, payment processor settlements and bank deposits may show different amounts because of settlement timing, processing fees, refunds or outstanding client balances.

We reconcile available sales and payment reports with accounting records and bank receipts. Unmatched deposits, unapplied payments and other differences are documented for your team to investigate, helping maintain clear revenue and receivables records.

Medicine Inventory Accounting

Medicines, vaccines and clinical supplies represent an important part of practice expenditure. Organized inventory records help connect purchases, stock movements and recorded costs.

We reconcile supplier purchases and available inventory reports with the accounting ledger. Using records supplied by your team, we prepare schedules showing opening balances, purchases, recorded usage or sales, approved adjustments and closing balances.

Stock Adjustments and Supplier Credits

Expired products, damaged stock, returns and differences identified during physical counts need supporting records and consistent accounting treatment.

We record approved inventory adjustments, reconcile supplier credits and flag unexplained differences for review. Your clinical team retains responsibility for physical stock counts, medicine handling and inventory controls, while we support the related financial records.

Payroll Preparation Support

Veterinary practices may employ veterinarians, nurses, technicians, reception staff and practice managers, alongside temporary or locum professionals. Clear payroll inputs help your team review staffing costs consistently.

We organize approved hours, salaries, overtime, bonuses and other payroll inputs. Supporting schedules are prepared using your established arrangements, with final payroll approval retained by your practice.

Payroll and Locum Payment Reconciliation

Staff payments and external practitioner invoices need to agree with payroll reports, approved records and bank transactions.

We reconcile payroll entries, deductions and related balances, and maintain payable schedules for locum or contractor invoices. Missing documentation, unpaid amounts and payment differences are highlighted for your designated reviewer.

Practice Costs and Budget Monitoring

Laboratory charges, medical supplies, rent, software and equipment maintenance can change from month to month. Regular comparisons help explain their impact on operating results.

We categorize expenses and prepare budget-versus-actual reports, highlighting significant movements for management review. Where supporting information is available, reports can show costs and financial results by location or service category.

Equipment and Cash Flow Reporting

Diagnostic equipment and other capital purchases can create substantial payment commitments alongside routine payroll and supplier bills.

We maintain equipment registers and approved depreciation schedules, reconcile financing balances where applicable, and prepare cash flow summaries. These reports help management review upcoming commitments and plan expenditure using organized financial information.

Monthly Close and Year-End Support

Consistent monthly accounting helps reduce unresolved items at year-end.

Our team supports bank and credit card reconciliations, supplier account reviews, inventory balance checks and payroll reconciliation. We organize supporting schedules and outstanding queries for your accountant or tax adviser to review.
