John Izzo attended the Ohio Veterinary Medical Licensing Board meeting on January 8, 2014.  The Board discussed the possibility of raising fees from $150 to $200 for veterinarians and from $30 to $45 for veterinary technicians.  This would give the Board in excess of $200,000 for ongoing programs.  The Board continued its discussion on the rules relating to Vaccination Clinics.  More changes were made to paragraph (A).  After over a half hour of discussion, the Board determined a vaccination clinic is a temporary clinic where a veterinarian performs vaccinations and/or immunizations against disease on multiple companion animals and where the veterinarian may diagnose and perform preventive procedures for heartworm and prevention and treatment of intestinal  parasites and fleas and ticks.  The next Board meeting will be in March.
