## Resource

Vet visits are about to get a lot more transparent—and cheaper—for pet owners. Starting September 23rd, the CMA mandates full price lists for all services, capped prescription fees (first medicine: $21, extras: $12.50), and written estimates for treatments over $500. These rules aim to stop surprise bills and curb inflated prices for common meds, while also requiring vets to disclose if they’re part of a corporate chain. More clarity, better comparisons, and fairer pricing—finally, pet parents can make informed choices without the financial shock.
