Please Note: By joining the HeathCare Plan, you are agreeing to these terms and conditions. We recommend that you read them carefully, and if you have any questions or require clarification, please speak to a member of our team.

1. The HeathCare Plan is a rolling annual preventative healthcare programme. The HeathCare Plan is not an insurance policy.
2. Membership of the agreement constitutes an agreement between you and Heath Veterinary Clinic Limited. Membership and benefits are not transferable to another practice or pet.
3. You have the right to cancel your HeathCare Plan membership within 7 days of joining (the “cooling‑off period”). If you choose not to continue during this period, any discounts, benefits, or products received under the plan must be repaid in full. Repayment will be calculated as the difference between the full practice price of the products or services received and any membership fees paid to date.
4. You will receive discounted products and services during the course of your membership including, but not limited to, vaccines and flea / worming / tick treatments and 2 health checks with one of our vets. Full details of what is included are available from the practice.
5. The fee for your pet will be determined by its species, age and weight.
6. Of course, your pet can still receive treatment outside the scope of the HeathCare Plan and this will be charged in accordance with the practice’s normal fees, terms and conditions.
7. These HeathCare Plan terms and conditions should be read in conjunction with any additional information including, but not limited to, literature provided by the practice detailing what is included in the HeathCare Plan. That literature forms part of these terms and conditions.
8. Your responsibilities – you are responsible for following our vets’ and nurses’ guidance, and for ensuring your pet attends the practice regularly for the preventative healthcare checks which are included as part of your membership of the HeathCare Plan. If we are unable to maintain your pet’s health because you haven’t followed guidance or attended the practice we may need to terminate your membership. Termination would be in writing as outlined below, and with immediate effect.
9. Your membership fees will be collected by Direct Debit on a monthly basis.
10. We use Vet Success Limited to collect Direct Debits on our behalf, and your bank statements will show a payment to Vet Success on behalf of Heath Veterinary Clinic. For the avoidance of doubt, your agreement is with Heath Veterinary Clinic Limited. Vet Success Limited merely provide support to the practice, which includes transferring your payments.
11. Membership for each pet will renew automatically on the anniversary of the date that your pet joined the HeathCare Plan.
12. We reserve the right to review the cost of the HeathCare Plan as part of our annual pricing review or in response to changes in practice costs. Should any price changes be required, we will provide you with at least 30 days’ written notice before the new fees take effect.
13. We will tell you in advance, in writing, if there is to be a change in membership fees on your renewal date. We will always give you at least 30 days’ notice of any change in fees as a result of our annual review.
14. In between our annual fees review, your pet’s monthly fees may also change as your pet’s weight changes. A change in fees due to a change in weight will take effect as soon as is reasonably practical. This applies to both increases and decreases in weight.
15. Failed Direct Debit payments, e.g. because of a lack of available funds, cause a significant increase in administration costs for the practice. We reserve the right to charge an administration fee of £20 for each failed payment. This administration charge will be added to your account.
16. After a failed Direct Debit payment, we will re-present our payment request to your bank after 3-5 working days.
17. If the second payment request also fails, a second administration charge may be added to your account. We will make a third and final payment request to your bank after a further 3-5 working days. If this payment request is unsuccessful your HeathCare Plan membership will be cancelled automatically and your pet will no longer receive the associated benefits and discounts.
18. If your HeathCare Plan membership is cancelled automatically because of failed direct debits, your account will be reviewed and you will be charged the full price of any products and services received during the course of your membership, minus any membership fees received to date.

Ending our agreement / cancelling your membership:

1. You may cancel your membership on your anniversary date (which is the anniversary of the date you joined) by giving us not less than 4 weeks notice.
2. If you cancel your membership before your anniversary date, we will review your account and, where applicable, charge you retrospectively the full price of any products and services received during the course of your membership, minus any membership fees received to date.
3. We may end our agreement by giving you written notice as outlined below.
4. Unpaid bills relating to your membership fees, treatment received or medicines dispensed will be handled in accordance with our standard terms and conditions (available on request) and may be referred to a third party debt collection agency.

Notice:

1. With regard to this agreement, either party wishing to give notice to the other should do so in writing.
2. ‘In writing’ includes emails, letters sent by post, or delivered by hand.
3. When we write to you by post, we will use the address most recently provided.
