Brakke 咨询观点
和很多读者一样，我自认为是自由市场主义者。让市场决定，政府不干预市场，自由开放的竞争对消费者来说是好事。所以，当我读到最近关于英国竞争与市场管理局（CMA）改革或兽医行业规则的文章时，我的自由市场雷达立刻响了起来。.
CMA的调查始于近三年前，共收到56000份回复，其中45000份来自公众，11000份来自兽医行业从业人员。数量相当庞大。您可以查看完整报告。 这里.
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.

您的观点
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日 的
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:
