Payroll Pressure Is Real – Here’s How Top Practices Are Managing It
In the 2026 Veterinary Payroll Report, the difference between the average hospital and the top-performing practices equates to nearly $110,000 in payroll efficiency. That’s real money that could be reinvested into growth, team development, or profit.
What separates top performers?
- Stronger Technician Utilization: These practices ensure techs spend more time on billable tasks.
- Lower Turnover: Reducing turnover saves hiring, onboarding, and lost revenue costs.
- Reduced Support Labor Leakage: This means fewer non-productive hours.
Practical Steps You Can Take Today
- Define utilization benchmarks by role
- Track turnover rates as a key KPI
- Shift non-billable tasks away from high-cost staff
