The Avian Medical Center is proud to be the only avian exclusive veterinary clinic in Oregon. In order to provide experienced care and keep our costs as reasonable as possible, we require payment in full at time of service.
We gladly accept cash, checks, debit cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, money orders, and cashier's or traveler's checks.
Insurance
If your bird is insured, please provide the name of the insurance company to us so it is in our records. You are responsible for payment to The Avian Medical Center, and the insurance company should reimburse you as per your policy.
Outpatient care
Outpatient care is the care that is entirely completed on the day of your bird's visit. Our payment policy requires payment in full at the time of completion of care. Payment options include cash, checks, debit cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, money orders, and cashier's or traveler's checks.
Inpatient care
If your animal is hospitalized, please be sure to request an estimate of the approximate cost of services, procedures, tests, drugs and supplies needed to treat your animal. This estimate will reflect only the initial diagnostic and treatment plan, and may change, based on your treatment decisions. Upon request, we can update your estimate daily. Treatment of your animal is determined by your decisions, with consideration of your own financial resources. You have the right to decline any or all treatment suggested for your birds. Always feel free to call and ask for updates.
Payment in full must be made at the time your animal is discharged. Due to the nature of our small practice, we are not able to offer payment plans.
If you have an outstanding bill, we cannot provide additional service until the past-due balance is paid in full.
We know that discussing finances can be difficult. We are open and willing to talk with you about any concerns.
If you should find a mistake on your account, please notify us of the discrepancy. Often times the mistake can be cleared up on the phone.
