Introducing Production-Based Pay for Relief Veterinarians
A New Feature That Rewards Productivity
Relief veterinarians play a crucial role in keeping veterinary clinics running smoothly. However, traditional pay models don’t always reflect the value they bring to a practice. Most relief vets are paid a flat rate per shift, no matter how much revenue they generate. This means a vet who brings in $7,000 in revenue might get paid the same as one who generates $3,500 — which doesn’t always feel fair.
That’s why Serenity Vet is introducing Production-Based Pay, a new feature designed to align relief vet compensation with productivity while helping clinics retain top-performing vets.
How Production-Based Pay Works
With this new feature, clinics can offer either a flat rate or a production-based bonus—whichever is higher. This means relief vets have the opportunity to earn more when they generate more revenue, while clinics only pay extra when the numbers make sense.
Example Scenario:
A clinic posts a 10-hour shift with a $1,000 base rate and a 25% production bonus.
- Scenario 1: The relief vet generates $3,500 in revenue.
25% of $3,500 = $875 → Since this is less than the base rate, the vet still receives $1,000. - Scenario 2: The relief vet generates $5,000 in revenue.
25% of $5,000 = $1,250 → The vet now receives $1,250 instead of $1,000.
After the shift, the final payment is automatically calculated based on revenue production. If no additional bonus applies, the vet receives their base pay.
Why This Feature Benefits Clinics
- Attract and Retain High-Producing Relief Vets:
Relief vets have options. Clinics that offer production bonuses can stand out in a competitive hiring market. - Encourage High Performance:
When vets are rewarded for their productivity, they’re motivated to be efficient, take on complex cases, and contribute more to the clinic. - Better Payroll Flexibility:
Clinics don’t have to overpay for slow shifts — compensation increases if the relief vet generates revenue above their base rate. - Improve Clinic Profitability:
A well-structured production model ensures clinics benefit from improved revenue while fairly compensating high-performing veterinarians.
Why Relief Vets Will Love Production-Based Pay
- Earn More for High-Revenue Shifts:
Your pay reflects the value you bring, not just the hours you work. - Transparent Earnings:
Serenity Vet automatically calculates bonuses, making it easy to track your income. - More Work Options:
Some vets prefer a flat rate, while others may want to take advantage of production bonuses. With this feature, clinics can offer both. - Fair Compensation:
If you’re a high-performing vet, you deserve a pay structure that reflects your effort and contribution to the clinic’s bottom line.
