Attention Lane County Veterinarians... The
Bearen Foundation has used the following guidelines in defining
a qualified client:
- The
client is in good standing with the vet.
- The
pet's condition is life-threatening or seriously impacts the
quality of life.
-
The pet's short and long-term prognosis is positive.
-
The client has a high level of financial need.
-
The client is willing to work out a payment plan or other possible
arrangement. (i.e. Care Credit)
- The
client displays dedication and responsibility to their pet.
-
The pet is current with shots and vaccinations.
-
The pet is spayed or neutered.
The
funding level applied for must not exceed 50% of the estimated
cost of treatment:
Level
1:
$25.00 for estimates of $50 - $100
Level 2:
$50.00 for estimates of $101 - $200
Level 3:
$100.00 for estimates of $201 - $500
Level 4:
$150 for estimates of $501 - $1,000
Level 5:
$200 for estimates over $1,000
Please
consider that our funds
are extremely limited;
we trust that you will recommend only the most qualified clients.
We
do not offer assistance for routine vet care (spay/neuter, immunization,
dental work, etc.) or for emergencies requiring same day response.
(Average response time is 3 days.)
