Ames, IA – March 24, 2009 – GlobalVetLink (GVL®), the leader in electronic health and Coggins (EIA) documents, is excited to announce the release of their new sister-site, MyVetLink.com.
MyVetLink.com is a website geared toward the horse owner, allowing them to print off their own digital Coggins certificates. The launch of GlobalVetLink’s secure, electronic signatures, made it possible to allow owners to create an account for retrieving their Coggins certificates and soon, their health certificates online. The system is win-win for both the owners and veterinarians. The horse owners now have their Coggins certificates at their fingertips, while it saves the veterinarians time, paper, ink and postage. Access to an owner login account is at the issuing veterinarian’s discretion.
Meredith van Benthuysen, GlobalVetLink’s Director of Sales and Marketing and horse owner herself says: “This free online system will give owners instant access to the documents they need for travel, exhibition and sales.”
“Traveling with digital health documents eases my worries when heading out on the road, as I know they can be accessed from anywhere I can get on the internet,” stated Karen Stopek of Stopek Stables in Adel, Iowa.
GlobalVetLink strives to increase efficiency in the regulatory paper process and feels the addition of the owner login is a logical step in that process. Currently owners can access their Coggins and GoPass (electronic equine passport) certificates and log their GoPass itineraries. The addition of health certificate availability will come later in 2009.
