Payment for Services
- We are committed to providing your pet with the best possible care and would be happy to discuss our fees with you at any time. Your clear understanding of our financial policy is important to our professional relationship.
- Payment is due at the time of service. In order to focus on our patients’ needs, customer service and minimizing costs, we do not bill.
- We accept debit cards, credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express), checks (we do not accept checks for new clients), and cash. Prepayment may be required prior to providing services such as emergencies, infectious disease cases (i.e. leptospirosis and parvovirus), and new clients.
- Kauai North Shore Animal Clinic offers third party financing options through; CareCredit and Scratchpay for invoices over $250.
CareCredit
How it works: CareCredit works just like a regular credit card, but without high interest rates, annual fees or pre-payment penalties. CareCredit offers no-interest for up to 6 months and low interest payment terms, zero hidden fees, and low minimum monthly payments. You can use your CareCredit card over and over for all your pet’s follow-up care as well as annual exams and vaccines. So you can focus on what really matters, like playing fetch and learning new tricks.
Scratchpay
How it works: Apply for a plan at scratchpay.com from your phone or desktop. Check your rate and pick your payment plan. If approved, your practice will be notified to finalize your plan, and the approved funds will be sent directly to them for your medical bills. If your plan is not finalized, it will naturally expire and your down payment will be reimbursed. Scratchpay provides instant decision applications. 90-second application with instant decision and terms presented clearly. Finding a plan won't affect your credit score.
