SNAP® FIV/FeLV Test benefits

 

IDEXX's SNAP FIV/FeLV Test offers many benefits to your patients and your practice.

  • The SNAP ELISA platform provides accurate, in-house results in 10 minutes.
  • One test, using one blood sample, delivers two results for maximum efficiency in your workflow.
  • Effective care and management can help infected cats live long, healthy lives.
  • Clients are willing to pay more for immediate, more thorough screening, with answers during the patient visit.
  • Use the time while the test is running to consult with pet owners on other medical needs, providing a more valuable patient visit.

COMPLIANCE TIP

By offering each of your clients the opportunity to screen for FIV/FeLV, you're giving them something they want—a comprehensive picture of their pets' conditions. Here are some ways to improve client compliance:

  • Develop a standard clinic protocol for FIV/FeLV testing.
  • Include FIV/FeLV testing on reminder cards for all cats receiving an FeLV vaccine.
  • Offer an FIV/FeLV observation form and client brochure to every cat owner who enters the clinic.
  • Support education on testing with countertop cards and posters available through IDEXX. View the examination room poster.
  • Initiate a discussion with your clients about their pets' environments, personalities and habits to determine if their cats have been exposed.

IDEXX's free education and materials can support your efforts to increase compliance.
