Patient Care Costs Deb Moon 08 Jan 1997 15:24 EST

Can anyone share their institution's practices of charging indirect costs
to "patient care costs" which are performed on animals?  Examples are
animals receiving MRI's, laboratory/pathology tests, EKG's, etc.  If the
"patient" is an animal, is your insititution recovering indirects on these
costs or are you holding them exempt as patient care costs?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
