The CMA standardises what pricing data practices must publish. We monitor it — daily, across 5,000+ UK practices — giving actuarial and claims teams the continuous market intelligence that static RCVS snapshots can't provide.
The CMA requires pricing data submission to the RCVS — but with no mandated refresh cadence. Likely annual at best. Market conditions shift far faster.
Consultation fees vary by up to 367% across UK regions. Without granular, continuously updated data, geographic risk models rely on outdated averages.
Reactive claims analysis means you're always pricing against yesterday's data. Proactive cost forecasting requires a live feed, not periodic reports.
The CMA requires practices to submit pricing data to the RCVS — but with no mandated refresh cadence. VetCompliance scans 5,000+ practice websites continuously, giving you a comprehensive market snapshot today and an ever-updating feed going forward. Not a one-off census — a living dataset.
Price variation for identical procedures can exceed 367% across UK regions. Our P10–P90 benchmarks give actuarial teams the granularity they need to model geographic risk accurately — not just national averages.
Corporate consolidation is reshaping veterinary pricing. Compare corporate medians against independent practices across all CMA service categories and model the impact on claims costs across your portfolio.
The CMA's £21 prescription fee cap directly affects dispensing revenue and client behaviour. Monitor how practices are positioning their prescription fees relative to the cap and model the impact on pharmaceutical claims costs.

| Regional granularity | 12 regions, postcode-level | TBC | Limited |
| CMA-aligned categories | Yes — all 5 categories | Yes | Varies |
| Corporate vs independent split | Yes | No | Possible |
| Structured data exports | CSV, JSON | TBC | No |
| Custom reporting | Yes — tailored to portfolio | No | Manual effort |
We maintain a database of 5,000+ UK veterinary practice websites sourced from the RCVS register, enriched with corporate group mapping and regional classification.
Our automated scanner visits each practice website daily (corporates) or weekly (independents), identifying pricing pages and extracting structured fee data using AI.
Extracted prices are mapped to CMA-standardised service categories, scored for confidence, validated against regional benchmarks for anomaly detection, and aggregated into percentile statistics.
We'll prepare regional benchmarks and corporate vs independent splits tailored to your underwriting needs. No commitment — just data.
