Veterinary Service Organizations - Low Risk Organizations Typically
Classification - "Financial Institution" NO
"Creditor" YES
Although it’s highly unlikely veterinary service providers would fall within the definition of a “financial institution,” many are “creditors” under the Rule. Your business or organization is a “creditor” if you regularly:
... extend, renew, or continue credit
... an arrangement by which you defer payment of debt or accept deferred

after the service was rendered
... accept insurance for covered services and the consumer is ultimately
responsible for payment or pays a balance in arrears for items not covered
by insurance.
