SCRIPTS FOR ANIMAL OWNER’S
Bova understands the urgency when it comes to filling a prescription for a client. When Bova Aus is instructed by the veterinarian clinic to make direct contact with the animal’s owner for payment, any prescription that has been sent to Bova Aus (Via Online, email or fax) that hasn’t been paid for by the animal’s owner after a three month period will be put on hold and Bova Aus will no longer attempt to contact the owner for payment.
