The equine split-billing power of HVMS, without the 2006 interface or the setup invoice.
Same equine split billing — no ~$6k setup, no per-revenue-vet fee, no dated interface.
HVMS is 100% equine and built for multi-vet hospitals, with real percentage splits, offline tablet support, and email/print/mail delivery. If you’re a large referral hospital, its depth is real.
It also carries large-practice weight: a dated interface, roughly $6,000 to set up, and pricing that climbs with a per-revenue-vet fee on top of the base. EDSI VMS gives ambulatory and mid-size equine practices the split-billing and delivery they need on a modern web app — with no setup invoice and no per-vet pricing.
