The MPV Quarterly Index is a regular FREE survey due to start in January 2009. It will be distributed to veterinarians on a regular quarterly basis immediately following the BAS quarters stipulated by the ATO to determine the general sentiment of the veterinary industry.

This survey is of a general nature to assess the general nature and direction of the veterinary industry. This will serve to keep veterinarians up to date about the general industry position and sentiment especially in relation to how our industry compares to the global economy and economic conditions.

The questions in this survey may vary from quarter to quarter. They will include a number of financial questions but will predominantly be asking veterinary owners and managers about trends for both the past and the future of the industry.

MPV Consulting recognises that both the integrity of MPV Consulting and the ongoing participation of veterinary practices are totally dependant on the maintenance of strict rules about data confidentiality.

All surveys performed by MPV Consulting come with an assurance of confidentiality for individual clinic data. Individual clinic data will only be viewed by MPV Consulting staff or persons directly associated in the actual physical act of data collation for survey results. No information of any individual clinic will be supplied to any source other than the specified contact for each clinic. Should any survey involve sponsors or supporters, this will not, and will never, include any form of access to any individual clinic information without written permission of that clinic.
