Brakkeコンサルティングの視点
多くの読者と同様に、私も自由市場主義者です。市場に任せ、政府は市場に介入すべきではない、消費者にとって自由で開かれた競争は良いことだと考えています。ですから、最近、英国競争市場庁（CMA）による獣医療分野の改革や規制に関する記事を読んだとき、私の自由市場レーダーが反応しました。.
CMAの調査はほぼ3年前に始まり、56,000件の回答が寄せられました。そのうち45,000件は一般市民から、11,000件は獣医療業界関係者からのものでした。これは膨大な数です。報告書の全文はこちらをご覧ください。 ここ.
What set the radar off for me was the price cap on prescriptions fees, which drove me to learn about the other ten reforms the CMA has imposed on the veterinary industry. I was sure that these reforms were all going to be bad, but after thinking about the reforms, I am not so sure. It seemed to me that most of the reforms were focused almost entirely on disclosure: price lists, written estimates, ownership transparency, comparison tools. A hardline free marketeer would tend to support most of those.
The report looked at the differences in pricing, satisfaction, and other things between large veterinary groups (LVGs, or corporate groups) and independent veterinarians, some of the differences are eye-opening. One of my observations here was about trust and how this has been impacted by the formation of LVGs, which I will address in the Viewpoint next week.

あなたの意見
Last week, we asked you about how you plan to spend Independence Day, July 4th,- most respondents stayed close to home almost equally divided between hosting a celebration at their house (23%), comforting their dogs spooked by fireworks (21%) or attending local 4番目 の
July celebrations (18%). A small number traveled out of state to celebrate (5%) while the “Other” responses (33%) are worth noting: yard work, family BBQs, a parade, remote camping in Idaho, an out-of-state wedding, and one household that took the chickens for a pool dip (hope they didn’t misspell “children”). However, they marked it, readers found their own way to celebrate 250 years of independence.
This week let’s see what you think about one of the CMA’s new rules for veterinary practices that directly focuses on disclosure. Tell us what you think about this rule:
